I would like the
DECLARE @MyPay decimal(5,9);
SET @MyPay = 258.235543210;
SELECT CAST(@MyPay AS decimal(5,2))
This is what the resultset is currently with the code above:
258.24
I would like to Not have the value round up. I would like to always show only the first two digits to the right of the decimal and not perform any rounding.
My code is rounding my values incorrectly and I'm not sure why. In this example, the numerator is 48 and the denominator is 49 which is .9795 but my SQL is producing 97.0. I would like to result to be 97.9
CONVERT(decimal(4,1), (SUM(CASE Score_CorrectID WHEN 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END +

CASE Score_Tone WHEN 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END +
CASE Score_Consol_Default WHEN 'OK' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) * 100)

I have a field in my SQL Server 2005 database of type numeric(18,3)In code, I treat the value as decimalWhen creating my command parameters, this is how I'm declaring them:prm.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Decimal;prm.Precision = (byte)int.Parse("18");prm.Size = int.Parse("0");prm.Scale = (byte)int.Parse("3");Inserting a number like 5.687 is rounding to 6.000 anyone know why it is doing that?

Hi,
I have a decimal field in SQL Server 2000 which has a precision value of 3 and scale 1. I will be storing values ranging from 0.5 to 10.0 in there. However, in my asp.net web form, if I select the value 2.5 from the DropDownList, SQL Server stores it as 3.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and give me some pointers on what I can do to fix it? Your help is much appreciated.
What is the best way to force a 2 digit decimal place without rounding?
For example select price*UOM returns
47.1294
3.255
.5
8
.49
What i want to be returned is
47.12
3.25
8.00
.50
.49
Thanks,

Hello I'm trying to write a SQL Statement along the lines of....
SELECT stringField + ' : ' + STR(decimalField) AS myField FROM tablename WHERE myCondition = myValue
Where stringField is a String field and decimalField is a Decimal Field in my Table.
In this statement it converts the decimal field to a string value so that it doesn't throw a conversion error but unfortunatly it seems to round up the value to an integer value and cuts off all my decimal places.
How can I get it to keep the Decimal Places?
hi all
I have a problem with SQL rounding my decimals up when I pull them from a temp table that has the column set as VARCHAR. What is happening is I am pulling the info from a flat file but each column has "" around each field so I must make the temp table columns all VARCHAR so I may pull the info from the file properly. So after the info has been extracted, I run an update statement on the temp table to remove all quotes. Once this is done, the revised info is inserted into a staging table and any field that is a represented as a decimal is labled as such in the staging table.
What I am running into is when the info is inserted into the staging table, the decimals are rounded up to whole values. The column has been checked to verify that it is indeed a decimal. I even have a CAST statement in the insert hoping to combat the rounding issue, but it is not helping.
So what reason(s) would my decimals be rounding up?
Thanks alot
This sounds so simple but yet don't know why it doesn't work.
i've got two decimal numbers in columns
closingUnits = 25093.53640
closingAmt = 59110.33
i use a derived column transformation to generate a string column which is the division of those two above.
mystrfield = closingAmt /closingUnits = 2.355599
what i want is cast it to just 4 decimal points when i run the expression below it cast it to 4 decimal points but it doesn't do any rounding.
the value i get is 2.3555 when i should get 2.3556
(ISNULL(closingAmt ) || closingUnits == 0) ? "0.0000" : ((closingAmt / closingUnits) < 1 && (closingAmt / closingUnits) > -1 ? "0" : "") + (DT_WSTR,15)(DT_DECIMAL,4)(closingAmt / closingUnits)
How do you display 12.38 as 1238 I can't use round.

Hi all,
I'm trying to update a decimal field with a single decimal number (1.8) the problem i'm having, is that it's rounding the number up (2). I would've thought that a decimal datatype would keep the decimal places correct?
This is quite annoying.. I've been searching around the web for an answer.. To no avail (I'm probably asking the wrong question)
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
I want to replace the contents of a value column with itself but rounded to 2 decimal places.
The current column is a double and I have tried to perform this using the following expression but it fails to work.

How should I achieve this?
I need to round UP values but they should never be rounded down, below is my expected output in RoundVal column.

difference between
SELECT ROUND ('6.465',2) --- result 6.46
and
SELECT ROUND (6.465,2) --- result 6.47
with
It's because you're relying on an implicit conversion from a string to a decimal data type which SQL server will do to 2 decimal places by default...
Alright:
SELECT ROUND (CONVERT(DECIMAL(3,2),'6.465'),2) --- result 6.47 Now please explain this:
SELECT ROUND('0.285',2) -- 0.28
SELECT ROUND(0.285,2) -- 0.29
SELECT ROUND (CONVERT(DECIMAL(3,2),'0.285'),2) --- result 0.29 The string value does not seem to be converted to decimal with 2 decimal places.
MS is on the safe side with mentioning the last digit is always an estimate But because the result of the estimate is always the same, I would like to know:
* how is a string value exactly implicitly converted?
* how exactly does the estimation work, that in case of doubt rounds a value up or off?
I have a table like
[A]-------------[B]
[0]-------------[0.012345]
[1]-------------[0.002345]
[0.2145]------[0.1457]
I need both columns A and B to be padded with zeros at the end upto 9th place after decimal so the output should look like:
[A]------------------------[B]
[0.000000000]-----------[0.012345000]
[1.000000000]-----------[0.002345670]
[0.214500000]-----------[0.145700000]
Note: total number of digits = 10 not including '.'decimal
I tried this but just getting 11 zeros.. it work when i want zeros in the left but not on the right
select right(REPLICATE('0', 11) + CAST([table] AS VARCHAR(11)),11)
from #table
Why are there more decimal positions here
PRINT cast(111 as decimal(38,35)) / 23
--> 4.82608695652173913043478260869565217
then here
DECLARE @Zähler decimal(38,35)
, @Nenner decimal(38,35)
SET @Zähler = 111.0
SET @Nenner = 23.0
PRINT cast(@Zähler as decimal(38,35)) / @Nenner
--> 4.826086
Of course, in the upper part 23 is implicitly an integer, in the lower example it is declared as decimal. But what if I need to devide by 23.5? Why is dividing by an decimal reducing the results decimal positions?

I'm using OpenRowSet to import about 30 columns from a csv file with 190 columns with a format file. Ultimately, I want to put this in an SSIS Package. I am receiving the following error when trying to import date and decimal info.
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 990, column 64 (TOTALSALES). There are several similar errors. I looked at this line and it is 17873.34 so I am not seeing the problem. Every value in the column is either 0 or a 2 digit decimal value. If I change the SQL Column and format file to to NVARCHAR, it imports fine.
The existing format file and SQL Column looks as follows. There are multiple errors referring to different columns and all of them seem to be valid decimals. I am having the same issue with date fields that exist in the csv as 20130521. If I bring it in as text, it is fine.
<FIELD COLLATION="SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" MAX_LENGTH="12" TERMINATOR="," xsi:type="CharTerm" ID="64"/>
<COLUMN xsi:type="SQLDECIMAL" SCALE="2" PRECISION="15" NAME="TOTALSALES" SOURCE="64"/>
The SQL Column is defined as Decimal ((15,2), NULL))
I created a small csv file with representative decimal, date, integer and NVarchar fields and it imports into SQL fine as decimal and date info. The SQL Query used is pretty simple. Ultimately, I am planning to create a package that imports this data and joins to a production table based on values in the csv file. It will either update existing values in a Production Table or insert New Values
INSERT INTO Import.dbo.test1
SELECT *
FROM OPENROWSET(BULK 'C:ShareImport.csv',
FirstRow=2,
FORMATFILE='C:ShareImport.xml'
) AS t1;
I am assuming there is bad data in the csv file but I'm not sure how to identify it as my test file seems to bring in date values with a format of 20140923 and 2 digit decimal values and that is what exists in the line numbers being referenced. I've not used OpenRow Set for this purpose before. The only workaround I've found is to bring it all in as text and create additional fields so I can cast or convert the date values which I'd rather not do as this process seems to work in my small sample file.
I have a requirement where i have to insert empty string in column whose datatype is decimal.
I have to replace the column value if it is null then insert it as ' '.
Obviously its generate error msg for conversion, is there any workaround for this. I cannot add 0 or other value as this column is used to generate some output value.
IIF(Column1 IS NULL, ' ', Column1))
I used TRY_PARSE but it insert null value if there is conversion error.
I am importing an excel spreadsheet into a MS SQL database table. When the spreadsheet is finished importing, I am noticing that some values that were brought in resemble something like this 1.41666666666667. Other values may be shorter or only have 1 digit. The problem is another web application that pulls this data for use in online forms only allows up to 2 digits. How can I round all of the numbers like the above to 2 decimals and replace the existing values?
I know there is the rounding function that could be used like so:
SELECT ROUND ([Hrs Total 2],2)
FROM AnnualClassifiedPAFs
How do I then take that rounded value and insert it back into the records?

I'm trying to insert into a table from an XML file. The mapping works OK however there is a problem with one of the fields. It is field name "Length" set up as Decimal(18,2) and it stops on the first row with an error, something like "Cannot convert to decimal". The values are all integers, such as "9", etc. but I presumed SQL would convert to "9.00" for example. It has worked for another field name "Weight", where values are stored in the XML file such as "0.28", etc. Does it reject it because it's an integer and needs to be to two decimal format in the XML?

SQL Server seems to round this down:
AVG(DATEDIFF(d, startdate, enddate))
I've tried using ROUND(AVG(DATEDIFF(d, startdate, enddate)), 0) but it still rounds down.
For example, if the result is 1370.758, I want it to round to 1371.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

I am working with a legacy SQL server database from SQL Server 2000. I noticed that in some places that they use decimal data types, that I would normally think they should be using integer data types. Why is this does anyone know?

I am creating a table on SQL Server. One of the columns in this new table contains whole integer as wells as decimal values (i.e. 4500 0.9876). I currently have this column defined as Decimal(12,4). This adds 4 digits after the decimal point to the whole integers. Is there a data type that will have the decimal point only for decimal values and no decimal point for the whole integers?

My database stores the decimals in Spanish format; "," (comma) as decimal separator.
I need to convert decimal nvarchar values (with comma as decimal separator) as a decimal or int.
Any Case using CAST or CONVERT, For Decimal or Int gives me the following error:

Any knows how to resolve.
Or any knows any parameter or similar, to indicate to the Cast or Convert, that the decimal separator is a comma instead a dot.
Hello!
I would like to cast (convert) data type decimal(24,4) to
decimal(21,4). I could not do this using standard casting function
CAST(@variable as decimal(21,4)) or CONVERT(decimal(21,4),@variable)
because of the following error: "Arithmetic overflow error converting
numeric to data type numeric." Is that because of possible loss of the
value?
Thanks for giving me any advice,

I wanted to convert a dataset from vb.net (2.0) to an .XLS file, by MS Jet. My national standard is using decimal commas, not decimal points for numbers signing the beginning of decimal places.
But the MS Jet Engine uses decimal point,in default. Therefore, in the Excel file only string formatted cells can welcome this data, not number formatted.
How can I solve or get around this problem? (with jet if it possible)
