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."
Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this. More that Iwould care to admit.In Sql server, how do I simply change a character into a number??????In Oracle, it is:select to_number(20.55)from dualTO_NUMBER(20.55)----------------20.55And we are on with our lives.In sql server, using the Northwinds database:SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2)) as a_number,cast ( STR(r.regionid) as int ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2) ) as a_number,cast (STR(r.regionid,7,2) as numeric ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044Str converts from number to string in one motion.Isn't there a simple function in Sql Server to convertfrom string to number?What is the secret?Thanks

Being a newbie to SSIS I'm not sure of the most efficient method of converting a DateTime object to a String.
I'm from a C# background where this would be easy using DateTime.ToString("YYYYMMdd"). I want to use the date in a file name so don't require most of the parts.
I'm sure I could do this using a script task to produce a file name for each row of data in my table and add that filename to the dataset but it seem like overkill to do something that should be simple. Also as I'm supposed to be getting to grips with SSIS I shouldn't keep running back to what I know.
My current approach is to derive a column and build up an expression to convert the date into a string. The only problem being that it doesn't work. The expression I'm working with is: (DT_WSTR, 50)([OrgName] ) + "_" + (DT_WSTR, 50)( [PayrollName] ) + (DT_WSTR, 4)(YEAR( [ProcessedDate] )) + (DT_WSTR, 2)(MONTH( [ProcessedDate] )) + (DT_WSTR, 2)(DAY( [ProcessedDate] )) ".txt"
I am trying to create a stored procedure that Pulls in Chargeable and Non Chargeable hours for our employees however When I run the Stored Procedure I get this error "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string." I am having a hard time figuring out were this is happening in the Stored Procedure. Also I would like to be able to Add a parameter that would be the StartDate and EndDate for which the stored procedure would pull time for.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[Chargeability] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON;
Hi, I have dates in "mmddyy" format coming from the sources and they are older dates of mid 80s like 082580 for instance.
When I cast it this way (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) Source_Date , It says ok but throws a runtime error.
When I hardcode a date in same format, (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) "082580" , It becomes red (an indication of syntax error) . Please note that we use double quotes in expressions in Derived Column Transformation; So an anticipation that using double quotes over single ones would be the syntax problem would be wrong.
Hello forum, Is it possible to convert a date stored as a string into a datetime with integration services 2005? My attempts with the €œdata conversion€? fail. The string type form of the date is €˜yyyy-mm-dd€™ and the desired result for use in a Union All is €˜dd/mm/yyyy 12:00:00AM.€™ This outcome is needs so that match on the date can populate a fact table, as the results are coming from two different databases. All advice/help welcomed. Ian
Hi I am having this problem. I have created a stored proc that uses dynamic sql. Now this works fine when I use it in Query Analyzer.
Now when I try to use this in Reporting services it gives me the error: ' Failed to generate fields for the query Check the query syntax or click refresh on query toolbar. Failed to convert parameter value from a string to a datetime '
set @strSQL = 'SELECT * FROM v_DetailedAuditsIssued WHERE '
if @param1 <> ''
Begin
set @strSQL = @strSQL + 'strRegion = ' + @param1 + ' AND '
End
if @param2 <> ''
Begin
set @strSQL = @strSQL + ' strTaxTypeCode = ' + @param2 + ' AND '
End
if @param3 <> ''
Begin
set @strSQL = @strSQL + ' strAuditType = ' + @param3 + ' AND '
End
set @strSQL = @strSQL + ' (dtmIssuedDate BETWEEN '''

+ CONVERT(nvarchar(30),@param5, 101) + ''')'
exec (@strSQ
end -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- </quote>
When I run
rptDetailedAuditsIssued '','','','1/1/2000','1/1/2001'in query editor it runs fine. But gives me that error every time I run it in SSRS. I think I got this problem but in earlier cases I used to set the param values to null in Repservices and it worked but its not working this time. This time it stops complaining but does generate any fields.
I am wanting to get the job name based on sys.sysProcesses.[Program_name] column. Why is this query not returning any results even though the 2nd substringed guids are found the the sysJobs table?

hello all, I am reading a file that contains textual data (formatted,e.g font=bold,font size=10 etc). After reading the file, i store the data read from the file to a table in Sql server 2005. But in the table, this data is stored like this:

Have the following in my SELECT statement, which I'm having issues with when I modify it to include a CAST or a CONVERT.
CONCAT(PER.[PERSON-REF],ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PER.[PERSON-REF] ORDER BY TEN.[tenancy-ref])) AS 'ID'How do I convert or cast it to a varchar (20)?
We have a 3rd party application that connects to our SQL 2005 as a external database source.
Our external database has a 'datein' field that for some reason is stored as a varchar(50).
I can use cast to convert the field to datetime, but how would I then format to the yyyy-mm-dd format in the same select statement(using in view)?
I need to convert this field to a format of YYYY-MM-DD in order for the 3rd party application to search on it correctly. Below is an example of the data -- FieldName = DateIn DateType = Varchar(50) 2006-07-06 Sep 12 2007 11:16AM 2007-07-19 Oct 2 2007 12:24PM 2007-08-19 Oct 31 2007 8:00PM Sep 15 2007 9:25AM 2007-08-18 Oct 16 2007 7:01PM Oct 30 2007 11:15AM Aug 29 2007 8:54AM Aug 29 2007 8:38PM Aug 25 2007 2:33PM
