T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Getting Undesirable Trailing Zeros After Casting To Decimal
Sep 7, 2014
The following line of SQL returns the first screen shot below.
((T0.TotalSales - ISNULL(T1.TotalSales, 0)) - (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0))) / (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0)) * 100 AS 'Gross Profit %'
I now want to limit the decimal places to two (2), and one might think that using a CAST operation here is the solution, as follows.
CAST(((T0.TotalSales - ISNULL(T1.TotalSales, 0)) - (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0))) / (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0)) * 100 AS decimal(15,2)) AS 'Gross Profit %'
However in actuality I am still seeing too many decimal places, but the extra ones have changed to ZEROS!
Ideally I would like to have no extra trailing zeros. How to achieve this?

I would like to 'drop' some trailing zeros from a decimal value, e.g.: 50.000000, and I am wondering how to go about this?
The value is definitely of decimal type, and in this instance I know that I want to eliminate exactly six (6) zeros.

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,
Ziga

I'm uploading data from a CSV file into SQL Server 2000 using an upload routine in C# (ASP.NET 2.0). I'm using an OleDbDataAdapter to select all the data in the CSV file into a DataTable. I then use a SQLBulkCopy to copy all the data into my SQL Server table. The CSV file maps exactly to the fields in the SQL Server database and I've used a custom delimiter of a '~' (tilda) that is declared in a schema.ini file.
The import works fine and my SQL Server table is fully populated with all the data. However, one source field in the CSV file is getting truncated in my SQL Server table. It is a field containing a value e.g. 32,000, 64,500 but this is getting truncated and losing the trailing zeros in SQL Server i.e. 32,000 (CSV) becomes 32 (SQL Server) and 64,500 becomes 65,5.
I've tried mapping the source field to a varchar, nvarchar and text field, but all data types have the same problem with truncating the trailing zeros (I only need to display the data - no calculations required) and the ',' in the number in the CSV file has prevented me from mapping this to an integer.
Also, locally the code works fine and my local database is SQL Server 2005, but the remote host is using SQL Server 2000 and this is where the problem occurs.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

in our database is saved by 6 decimal places, whether the value has no values ??in decimal position. Field type is of type nvarchar.
How do I remove these "laggards spirit" in the best and smartest way.
Ex:
100.000000 will be 100
100.001000 will be 100.001
100.000001 will be be 100.000001
100.100000 will be be 100.1
and so on...

I am exporting from a SQL money field to a flat file. The datatype is set to DT_CY in SSIS. I need two decimal places in the flat file but instead I am getting 1.1 instead of 1.10.
Should I be using a different datatype or is there a way to set the number of decimals on the DT_CY datatype?

I'm building an invoice report in visual studio for use with MS Dynamics CRM Online. The "quantity" field I reference from the database contains a decimal number with a precision of 2 (i.e - 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00) due to how I charge my clients as they can purchase 0.25 hours of support for example.
The problem is that I also sell other items that don't require a decimal place in the quantity field and "1 x website design" would look a lot better than "1.00 x website design".
format the quantity field on my report so that it will remove the 0's and the decimal place ONLY when all the numbers after the decimal place are 0. So, to clarify:
1.00 should become 10.25 should stay as 0.250.50 should stay as 0.50 instead of it changing to 0.5 (I can live with 0.5 if 0.50 is a deal breaker.)

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

I am creating a view which involved concatenation of 2 int columns.
The data in the columns look like
Column 1 Column 2
1234 1
12345 11
I am trying to get the following output
001234001
012345011
So the first column should have zeros padded to the front to make 6 numbers, the second column should be 3 numbers long with zeros in front. So when added together it is 9 numbers long.

I have a databound textbox that is used to store a decimal value.
If my sql table stores this column as a decimal(2,2), then all of the numbers entered into the field will automatically put decimal places in that I don't want. For example, 45 becomes 45.00... 34.5 becomes 34.50.
If I set the sql table to nchar(10) and the dataset to system.string (max length of -1), then the number looks the way I would like it, however after a datatable update I end up with trailing whitespace after the number - filling up the rest of the unused 10 characters. For example, "45" becomes "45 " (8 spaces afterwards).
Does anybody know how I can fix this? I would prefer to store the numbers in SQL as a string (nchar(10))... but I don't know how to get rid of that darned whitespace. I would like to remove it at the database level and not at the client level if at all possible.
Thanks!

I am trying to setup an indicator value for an SSRS report to show green and red values on a report, based on the NRESULT value. The problem I am facing is that I have several different CASE statements that have the same logic, and they are processing just fine. NRESULT is a decimal field, so no conversion should be necessary. I do not know why I am getting the "Arithmetic overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric." error message.
Below is the CASE statement where the error is occurring. It is in the part of the ELSE CASE. The first CASE works just fine when the ELSE CASE is commented out. If I also change the ELSE CASE statement to say "else case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) = '-' then '0'", then it processes fine, too, so it has to be something I am missing something in the check on negative values. I do need the two checks, one for positive and one for negative values, to take place.
case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) <> '-' then --This portion, for checking positive values, of the CASE statement works fine.
CASE WHEN LEFT(ROUND(NRESULT,2),4) between 0.00 and 0.49 THEN '2' --Green
ELSE CASE WHEN LEFT(ROUND(NRESULT,2),4) > 0.49 THEN '0' --Red
ELSE '3' --White
END
END
else case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) = '-' then --This portion, for checking negative values, of the CASE statement is producing the conversion error message.
[code]....
I checked the NRESULT field, and there are not any NULL values in there, either.

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?
Example: AutomobileTypeId (PK, decimal(10,0), not null)

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?

Hello.
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:
Error converting data type varchar to numeric
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.

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)

Hi all,
I am designing some reports for a German branch of my company and need to replace decimal point with a comma and the thousand comma seperator with a decimal point.
e.g.
‚¬1,500,123.00 to ‚¬1.500.123,00
Is there a property that I can change in the report designer to allow this to happen or is this something I need to convert in a Stored Proc.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks!
