I am new to SSC . I have a table that has NO.OF WORKING HOURS for 30 days. I am trying to convert all the values into INT as MINS to generate a SSRS report.
Note: There are some records with negative value (-4h15m)
Sample
NAME D1 D2 D3 ....D31
X1 9H 30M NULL 10M
X2 0M 1H 30M -4H45M
X3 20M -1H NULL
Trying to use LIKE / NOT LIKE to identify values that contain any alphanumeric characters outside of A-Z e.g £%$^&*_-{[@ etc etc
The field should contain only values between A-G with a numberic e.g ABCD1234567... but some rows have characters such as above, some have spaces (weeps) , and some have letters outside the A-G range ....
I need to convert a column of data from alpha numeric to integer.
I am only querying the tables i.e. i don't have access to actually change the data tables themselves.
CAST or CONVERT throws up an error. Are there any other commands i can use at the query stage?
The data I need to convert is always actually a number. i.e. even though it is recognised as alpha numeric, the figure is a number.
I just need it to be converted to an integer so i can SUM it etc.
I want to calculate total sum of column.
I have a table with many values of column:
declare @time table
(times nvarchar(255))
INSERT INTO @time (times)
Select ('05:01')
UNION ALL
Select ('00:01')
UNION ALL
Select ('170:01')
UNION ALL
Select ('2543:01')
Select * from @time
How can I get seconds value for every row?
05:01 - 301
00:01 - 1
170:01 - 10201
P.s. Finally I use - Select convert(char,dateadd(second,152581,60),108) as sumtime
I'm importing dates into a table with Bulk insert
SET DATEFORMAT DMY
it works with dates e.g. "14/01/2009"
However sometimes I get dates in the format
"Fri 14/01/2009"
What is the best way to convert these.
I can only think of putting them in a staging table with all date fields as varchars Then updating these varchar fields
LTRIM(REPLACE(dtField, 'Mon', ''))
LTRIM(REPLACE(dtField, 'Tues', ''))
I work with SQLite and need to write a query the old school way to convert rows to columns. If it was MS SQL I would use pivot to get the expected result. However this is SQLite I cannot use pivot.
Sample data:
create table t1 (id int, Dept char (1), Total int);
insert t1
select 1, 'A', 100
union
select 2, 'B', 120
union
select 3, 'C', 140
union
select 4, 'D', 150;
How do I use LEFT OUTER JOIN to produce result similar to the below?
SELECT 'Total' AS Dept,
[A], [B], [C], [D]
from
[code]....
I have to store the result of a calculation in a column of type CHAR(7) (and am unable to change the column type).
The calculation can have results ranging in size from 0.1234567 to 99999999.
In the first case, I would need to store the value of 0.12345 in the column. In the later case, an error should be thrown.
So I need to store all of the significant digits from the left of the decimal (if there are < 7) and as many of the digits to the right as will fit into a CHAR(7), with the remaining precision being truncated.
I have the following CASE statement:
SELECT CASE WHEN [TBL_whole_rock_geochem].au = 0 THEN '<' + [TBL_ActLab_codes].[Au] ELSE [TBL_whole_rock_geochem].[Au] END AS [Au det]
It errors on the highlighted code.
Error converting data type nvarchar to float
the code should return :
<0.5
<1
I have tried '<' + ISNUMERIC([TBL_ActLab_codes].[Au]) but received this error
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '<' to data type int.
How I can concatenate the < with a float value?

declare @deadline Datetime = '2014-03-23 15:30:10.000'
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(30),@deadline, 100) AS DateConvert
----With this I am able to produce that like
----o/p: Mar 23 2014 3:30PM
declare @deadline1 Datetime = '2014-03-03 15:30:10.000'
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(24),@deadline1, 100) AS DateConvert
--o/p: Mar 3 2014 3:30PM
--expected O/p: Mar 03 2014 03:30PM
What is the correct date format to achieve this.
I seem to always get the "Fun Stuff" to try and figure out. I have an entire table that was pumped out of Oracle. I even hate saying that word!
There are a couple columns that are Float data type, and they are storing phone numbers as a Float data type. I am not able to CAST these into anything that is legible.
This is one of the values that I made up that look like some of the others.

I have 5 columns in my database. 1 column is coming like a dynamic.
I want to convert records from rows to columns. Currently I have a data like this.
Race AgeRange Amount
W 17-20 500
W 21-30 400
W 31-40 200
A 17-20 100
H 41-50 250
H 51-60 290
So age range is not fixed and it can be any and I have one separate relational table for age range where it's coming from. Now I want to convert it into columns like
Race 17-20 21-30 31-40 41-50 51-60
W 500 400 200 0 0
A 100 0 0 0 0
H 0 0 0 250 290
I have a scenario wherein one of the column values in a row contains a string value which is non-delimited (as shown below). I need to split them by 2 characters and generate as many rows as count of set of 2 digits in that string.
Current record
RecordID Name CountyList
1 ABC 00
2 CDE 01020304
3 XYZ NULL
Expected output:
RecordID Name CountyList
1 ABC 00
2 CDE 01
2 CDE 02
2 CDE 03
2 CDE 04
3 XYZ NULL
I already have a solution in place to run it thru cursor and then do a while loop on the CountyList column by taking 2 digit value using Substring function (keeping start position dyanamic and jumping 2 positions).
Why does this code (below) cause a change in the transaction state?
DECLARE @date DATE,
@string VARCHAR(5)= 'test'

Need getting the below Cursor query convert to a Recursive CTE or with a while loop as I do not want to use a cursor.

Scenario is like that single dept can have multiple LocationHeads, If Location heads are multiple then they should display in single column using *starting the name as mentioned bottom under required output.

insert into #temp values(1,'test','head1')
insert into #temp values(1,'test','head2')
insert into #temp values(1,'test','head3')
insert into #temp values(2,'test1','head1')
insert into #temp values(2,'test1','head2')

I have a standard datetime and I need to convert it to the client specification of:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
eg: 2009-04-16T19:20:30+08:00
I am not sure of the easiest way to do this.
The test code below gets me part of the way but I am unsure on how to get the offset on the end without hardcoding to much.
DECLARE @datetime DATETIME = '2014-12-20 12:30:00'
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(30),@datetime,127)
We have 2 columns:
StartDate - data type Date
StartTime - data type Time
I need to combine them into a DateTime data type. For now, I convert each of them into varchar, insert space in between, and convert to DateTime, like this:
convert(datetime, convert(varchar(10), EndDate , 101) + ' ' + CONVERT(varchar(20), EndTime,24))
Is there a better, more elegant way to do this?
I have a stored proc I want to convert it to either a Normal Query using A while loop or a set based operation/recursive cte as I want to run it for multiple CompanyNames.

i am trying to take a field that has part of a date in it, so I have to parse it out as follows:
SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)
This is because a date of 04/16/2014 will show as 160416 in the first part of the field I need to parse it out of, thus becoming 04162014.
From there I then need to convert this "date" into a legitimate SQL datetime type, so that I can then run a DATEDIFF to compare it to when the record was actually entered, which is a separate field in the table, and already in datetime format.
When I use the below statement, I am getting the message that, "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string."
CAST((SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)) as datetime)
I also tried CONVERT(datetime, (SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)), and got the same message.
how I can parse that field, then convert it to a datetime format for running a DATEDIFF statement?

Hi all,
I was told recently that doing the following:
SELECT ProductName ||' , '|| Category FROM PRODUCTS
would add parentheses around the ProductName field data. However, after trying it out for myself I found it did no such thing.
Does this look familiar to anyone? Is it syntax I have wrong or something?
