Converting String To Date In SSIS

Jan 29, 2007

I am very new to SSIS though I have written hundreds of SQL 2000 dts' with all kinds of active scripts doing all kinds of things. I am now trying to convert them to SSIS and since scripts don't come through the migrator I am doing them by hand once again. I have the package created, but one of the input fields on the text file is YYYYMMDD , but the database field it is going into is a datetime so I need to convert it to a valid date format so that the conversion will take place. I tried data conversion task but that doesn't work, now I'm assuming I need to use the derived column, but not sure and don't have a clue how to use that, can anyone help? Thanks bostonrose

Converting String Parameter Values To Date

Mar 11, 2008



Hi,

I have a calendar parameter in one of my reports. The values of the calendar are of the form 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mms'. And they are string values.

Now when I generate the report I have a textbox that takes the parameter label (e.g., parameter!calendar.label). However, I would like to format (or trim) the label as just 'yyyy-mm-dd'. Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried to change the parameter value format to datetime but this just throws an invalid datatype error...

cheers,
Al

Converting A Date In The Form Of A String To A Datetime Format

Sep 29, 2006

Hi,

I'm writing some SQL and want to convert the following expression into a date format in the SELECT list:

'01/'&Month(OrderDate)&'/'&Year(OrderDate)

Basically, I want to look at each order date, convert that date to the first of that month and GROUP BY this expression.

There is a CONVERT function, but I'm new to all this and can't seem to get it to work.

Any help would be gratefully received!

Cheers!

Converting Date From String To Datetime In Data Transfer Task

Jul 13, 2006

The source is a flat file with a column where dates are stored as: 07/12/2006 11:35am. In some cases the column is blank.

I need to import this into a table with a datetime column. In the data flow task, I get the error that conversion b/w String and DB_Timestamp is not allowed. First question is why does SSIS think its a DB_Timestamp column? Shouldnt it be DB_Date or DB_Time. Anyway, when I add a Data Conversion Task in the Data Flow, and cast to the source column to either DB_TimeStamp, DB_Date or DB_Time I get an error.

Please help. What am I doing wrong.

Transact SQL :: Error - Conversion Failed When Converting Date And / Or Time From Character String

Nov 16, 2015

I've imported a CSV file into a table in SQL Server 2012. It's a large file, 140,000+ rows, so I couldn't covert it to Excel first to preserve the date format due to Excel's row limit. In the CSV file, there were 3 column with date data in "31-Aug-09" format, and the import automatically transformed these in "31AUG09" format (varchar(50)) in SQL Server.  Now I need to convert these 3 columns from varchar to datetime so I could work with them in date format.

I've tried several things,e.g,

select
convert(datetime,
right(admdate,4)+left(admdate,2)+substring(admdate,3,3))

or

select
convert(datetime,
substring(admdate,6,4)+substring(admdate,1,2)+substring(admdate,3,3))

but keep getting the same error message (Msg 241) "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string".

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Conversion Failed When Converting Character String To Small Date-time Data Type

Jul 15, 2014

All source and target date fields are defined as data type "smalldatetime". The "select" executes without error though when used with "insert into" it fails with the error:

Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Line 25: Conversion failed when converting character string to small date-time data type..I am converting from a character string to smalldatetime since the source and target date columns are "smalldatetime". All other columns for the source and target are nvarchar(255). I assume there is an implicit conversion that I don't understand. In a test, I validated that all dates selected evaluate ISDATE() to 1.

Converting String To Unicode String In T-SQL

Mar 26, 2007

Hi,We have stored proc name proc_test(str nvarchar(30)). So far this prochas been invoked from a .NET application assuming that only Englishcharacter strings will be passed to it. The calls are likeproc_test('XYZ')We now have a requirement for passing Chinese strings as well. Ratherthan changing the calls throughout the application, we would like tohandle it in the stored procedure so that it treats the string as aunicode string. Can we apply some function to the parameter to convertit to unicode so that we don't have to call with an N prefixed to thestring?Thanks,Yash

Converting A Decimal Date Value To Date Field

Feb 4, 2015

I am trying to convert a decimal date value to a date value that I can use in formulas but am having a lot of trouble.My date value currently shows in decimal format YYYYMMDD. I want to convert this to a date so I can then find the number of days between two dates.I have tried convert (datetime, convert(varchar(8),left(qhstdt,8))) with qhstdt as my decimal date field but I receive the error message below:

Error: SQL0204 - CONVERT in *LIBL type *N not found.

I have also tried converting it using (year(QHSTDT)*10000+100*month(QHSTDT)+ day(QHSTDT))) but when I convert the dates using this formula, I can get an incorrect number of days when I try to subtract one from the other.What formula can I use to convert my YYYYMMDD field to a format that will allow me to compare number of days between two dates?

Converting From String To Int

Nov 7, 2007

I have a fixed-width flat file that I'm importing to a SQL table in a data flow task. The first field is an ID field, of length 12, that I'm told I can assume is an INT datatype. Obviously, it's a little silly to shove an integer that can be a max of 10 digits into a 12 digit field... but that's my situation.

I set the columns on the flat file connection manager to be inputColumnWidth of 12, and datatype of DT_I4. When I try to run the package, I get the error (understandably): The data conversion for column "ID" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".

What are my options here? I'm going to assume that even though the width is 12 characters, only an integer will appear in those spaces. I attempted to use a derived column and a type cast, but to no avail. Help would be appreciated... thanks!

Converting Bytes To String

May 3, 2007

Hi guys,I'm currently trying to insert image into my SQL db. 
I have tried a number of methods that were posted online, and so far
with no luck.My current code reads:                     Dim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection()                    conn.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MainDBConnection").ToString                    conn.Open()                    Dim cmd As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("SP_SAVEImage", conn)                    cmd.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure                    Dim sImageName As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageName", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50)                    sImageName.Value = sImageName                    Dim sImageType As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageType", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50)                    sImageType.Value = fileType                    Dim sImageData As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageData", Data.SqlDbType.Image, uploadedFile.Length)                    sImageData.Value = uploadedFile                    cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageName)                    cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageType)                    cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageData)                    Dim reader1 As Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader                    reader1 = cmd.ExecuteReaderRunning
through debug, everything runs up until the last line, where an error
is caught saying : Failed to convert parameter value from a
SqlParameter to a String I reckon it's to do with the input sImageData being input as a byte array - but I can't seem to find a way around it. Any help greatly appreciated!!

Converting Hex Data To String

Jan 21, 2001

I am writing a stored procedure that generates a computername for new workstations. Our naming standards, based on terminal ID's, are as follows:
'R' + X + Y + ZZZ, where 'R' is the letter 'R', X is a hex digit indication a locatoin, Y is a hex digit indicating business line, and ZZZ is a hexadecimal sequential number assigned within each location/busines line, for up to 4096. (This isn't a perfect naming standard, but is an improvement over the one that preceded it and is a requirement for our legacy applications).
I can do everything fine, and calculate the sequential number using an int. Once I have the new number, I am trying to convert the integer to a varbinary, then convert that to a string, then use RIGHT to get the rightmost three characters of the hex string.
set @SEQNUM = 4095
set @HEXSEQNUM = CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM)
PRINT CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM) -- displays 0x00000FFE etc.
PRINT 'HEXSEQNUM ' + @HEXSEQNUM -- displays 'HEXSEQNUM'


Any ideas? I am very new to TSQL...

Converting String -&&> UniqueIdentifier

The data was truncated while converting from one data type to another. [ Name of function(if known) = ]


The column I am inserting into has a datatype of uniqueIdentifier.

This is the query I am running:

Converting A Hex String To Binary

Jul 18, 2006

I am trying to write a function to convert a hex string to binary. I would like it in a function so I can use it on aggregate data in queries (instead of having to cursor through the data). So, I write my function:

CREATE FUNCTION HexToBinary (@hexstring char(16)) RETURNS binary(8)
AS
BEGIN
declare @b binary(8)
,@sql nvarchar(255)

SET @sql = N'SET @b = 0x' + @hexstring
EXEC sp_executesql @sql,N'@b binary(8) out',@b output
RETURN @b
END

Then, I try to call my function:

SELECT HexToBinary('E0')

...and I get:

Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Line 1
'HexToBinary' is not a recognized built-in function name.

However, I can get it to work if I use a slightly different syntax:

declare @b binary(8)
exec @b = HexToBinary 'E0'
select @bAny thoughts as to what might be going on? Obviously, the lower syntax does not help me call this function in queries, which is really my goal.

Issues Converting A Varbinary(50) To String.

Mar 31, 2008

Hi Gurus,
Here is my problem-:
I have a field in the SQL 2005 database with type varbinary(50). Now when i enter value to this field, I enter a value for example 111111101. The reason to enter such a value in varbinary(50) type is, that this value is meant to grow, as each 1 and 0 in this value is a permission or right my user would have to various features of the web application, I am designing. Now when I open the table to see the data in the database, it shows as <Binary data>. But that's okay, as binary fields are mostly meant to store pictures, files etc. But when I read this value into my ASP.Net code using c#, the value as returned as 069F6BBD. After some research I realized that for decimal value 111111101, the hex value is 069F6BBD.
All I need in my code is the same thing that I entered which is  111111101.
Can someone guide me a lil bit.
Thanks in advance..
VJ
