I am having a problem importing an Excel spreadsheet. I have a column inan Excel sheet with alphanumeric text and some of the cells are numeric.Some of the cells contain numbers like 12345.6 and when DTS is doneimporting it into a field that is nvarchar the results are"12345.600000000001". I have tried:1. Changing the format of the Excel column to text2. Using the formula =text(a1,0) which only truncates the .63. Using the formula =t(a1) which will remove some numeric representations4. Exporting the sheet to CSV or TXT first which will not enclose the cellcontents with ""5. Beating the computer with a nine ironNone of these options work. Any idea anyone?Don VonderBurg

Hi again all,I have a small issue. Here's an example dataset :F1 F2 F31 0.58 Hi2 0.70 Hello3 Fail Bye4 <Null> HiWhen I write this statement :SELECT SUM(CONVERT(DECIMAL(16,8),F2)) MySumFROM T1WHERE IsNumeric(IsNull(F2,'X'))=1I get "Cannot convert a Varchar value to Numeric" error. From what Iunderstand, it somehow tries to convert to a decimal(16,8) BEFORE filteringthe nulls and the non-numeric out. (Keep in mind that the actual table hasover 1.5Million records).Any idea on how to get around that ?Thanks,Michel

I have a sql code that I am having some difficulty with. All I'm trying to do is get each department and sum the amount by month based on the date in the table. I am getting "error converting data type varchar to numeric".
Code: select DEPARTMENT, CASE WHEN ((DATE >= '06/01/2014') AND (DATE <= '06/30/2014')) THEN (cast(sum(Amount) as decimal(10,2))) ELSE '' END AS 'JUNE', CASE WHEN ((DATE >= '07/01/2014') AND (DATE <= '07/30/2014')) THEN (cast(sum(Amount) as decimal(10,2))) ELSE '' END AS 'JULY' from L27_PHAROS_DETAIL_DATA WHERE Department = 'TECHNOLOGY SERVICES' GROUP BY DEPARTMENT, DATE ORDER BY DEPARTMENT
I am putting a SELECT statement together where I need to evaluate a results field, to determine how the color indicator will show on a SSRS report. I am running into a problem when I try to filter out any non-numeric values from a varchar field, using a nested CASE statement.
For example, this results field may contain values of '<1', '>=1', '1', '100', '500', '5000', etc. For one type of test, I need a value of 500 or less to be shown as a green indicator in a report, and any value over that would be flagged as a red. Another test might only allow a value of 10 or less before being flagged with a red.
This is why I setup a CASE statement for an IndicatorValue that will pass over to the report to determine the indicator color. Using CASE statements for this is easier to work with, and less taxing on the report server, if done in SQL Server instead of nested SSRS expressions, especially since a variety of tests have different result values that would be flagged as green or red.
I have a separate nested CASE statement that will handle any of the values that contain ">" or "<", so I am using the following to filter those out, and then convert it to an int value, to determine what the indicator value should be. Here is the line of the script that is erring out"
case when (RESULT not like '%<%') or (RESULT not like '%>%') then CASE WHEN (CONVERT(int, RESULT) between 0 and 500) THEN '2' ELSE '0'
The message I am getting is: Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '<1' to data type int.
I thought a "not like" statement would not include those values for converting to an int, but that does not seem to be working correctly. I did also try moving the not to show as "not RESULT like", and that did not change the message.
How I can filter out non-numeric values before converting the rest of the varchar field (RESULT) to int, so that it is only converting actual numbers?
I try to JOin to tables: Enterprise has a decimal(5,3) and COHIER has varchar 5. All I am getting is an error on converting data. How can I fix this problem.

Yes again a topic like this, I couldn't get an answer for my problem so I started a new topic.
Im getting this error for these lines:
$registreer = "INSERT INTO Gebruikerstelefoon (gebruikersnaam, telefoonnummer, volgnr) VALUES ('".$_SESSION['gebruikersnaam']."', '".$_POST["telefoonnummer"]."', '')"; mssql_query($registreer) or die("Fout bij toewijzen telefoonnummer.");
'telefoonnummer' (phonenumber) is nummeric, users can insert their phonenumber in a input field (text) and register along.. ( this is a second query for the column phonennumber) though this doesn't work..
