Cast Or Convert Nvarchar With Comma As Decimal Separator To Decimal

Apr 29, 2008

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.

How Can I Use The Decimal Comma Instead Of Decimal Point For Numbers In Jet Engine?

Sep 19, 2007



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)

ORDER BY RecordKey desc


problem is that the data I am trying to insert is of the type nvarchar. eg: 06.50
I need it to be converted to type decimal (or float) before it is inserted in the new table.

Is there a way to do this within the SELECT TOP expression?

Problem With CAST And CONVERT In SQL Server2000 Converting Decimal Places From 4 To 2

May 11, 2005

All of my currency columns are only storing 2 decimal places when I insert into the database but when I pull out the data with a SELECT statement, I always get 4 decimal places instead of the 2 that were inserted. 
For example: 
Database Price            SELECT statement Price
100.56                           100.5600
I have tried to use the CAST and/or CONVERT commands but I cannot get the output to come out as 100.56.  Has anyone had a similar problem?
Thanks

Converting Decimal Point To Decimal Comma

Nov 30, 2007

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!

ADO: Locale And Decimal Separator

Dec 13, 2007

Hi

I am working on an application that uses ADO to retrieve data from SQL Server 2005. It may be used against various instances of databases and each instance contains floating point values that may used comma (',') or point ('.') as decimal. This is where the problem occurs. Depending on the database instance the strings containing floating point values also use comma or point as decimal separator.

Is there a way that by which I can force the database to return floating points with decimals separated by point? Doing a prelimimary google search, I found hints of including "Locale Identifier" in the connection string such as




Code Block
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;Locale Identifier=0x0409;User ID......




but even if I specify US English locale, it does not remove the commas in floating point data.

Kind regards
Jens Ivar

Importing Text File Removes Decimal Separator

Feb 20, 2006

Hi,

I'm trying to import a semi-comma separated text file into a SQL db. I have a field in the text file that contains decimal number. As a decimal separator it's used a comma (15,35). When i use a DTS package to create a destination table and import all rows, the field is created as a float field. In this field the decimal comma is removed so the number in SQL becomes 1535. If I change the decimal separator to (.) i works OK. But I need to get it work with comma as decimal separator. In the DTS package the field form the text file is recognised as varchar (8000). Any ideas?

Missing Decimal Places After Cast()-ing

Mar 13, 2008

Hello, The issue is to convert a number like 114270 to 114 + (270/320) = 114.84375. The decimal version is the desired result. In other words the last 3 digits of 114270 are in base 320.

Question: I cast my number as char() then use substring() to get the digits. Then I cast back to float and divide by 320. I get 0 when I do this and I'm not sure why.

Code follows:
declare @p float
set @p = (select top 1 P from [tablename] where Product = 'Z')

declare @pchar as char(6)
set @pchar = cast(@price as char(6))
declare @first3 as char(3)
declare @second3 as char(3)
set @first3 = cast(substring(@pchar, 1,3) as float(25))
set @second3 = cast(substring(@pchar, 4,6) as float(25))
select @pchar -- 114270
select @first3 -- 114
select @second3/320 -- 0

I have tried changing cast(substring(@pchar, 4,6) as float(25)) to
cast(substring(@pchar, 4,6) as decimal)
and I get the same result. Any suggestions or is there a better way altogether?

Change : To Decimal Point In Cast

May 20, 2008



I have the following code:




declare @number nvarchar(50)

set @number = '7:50'



select cast (@number as float)

This gives the error:


Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 8

Error converting data type nvarchar to float.


But if I change the value to '7.50'
it works ok.

Is there any way to get the cast statement to interpret the : as a decimal point?

Thanks,

Stripping Decimal Data From An Nvarchar Value...

Nov 20, 2006

I have a table that contains an nvarchar column of data. The data is actually a monetary value; sometimes with a decimal point sometimes without.

My problem is that I need to strip the decimal portion of the string if it exists. From a select statement I can use:

SUBSTRING(DW_OBP_ORD_TMP_IC.VALUE,1,LEN(VALUE)-(LEN(VALUE)-CHARINDEX('.',DW_OBP_ORD_TMP_IC.VALUE)

if a decimal point exists. But if one does not the CharIndex comes back 0 and my equation does not work correctly.

I need to pull the data from the table, along with many other fields. How do I do this without using a cursor? I have millions of rows so need a solution that will be quick.

thanks in advance,

Marilyn

Data Type With Decimal Point For Decimal Values But Not For Whole Integers

Dec 8, 2013

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?

Converting (casting) From Decimal(24,4) To Decimal(21,4) Data Type Problem

Jul 24, 2006

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,

SQL 2012 :: Won't Convert To Decimal

Feb 3, 2015

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?

Convert Decimal To String Is Without Rounding Up

Jul 27, 2004

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?
