I'm trying to write the contents of a csv file to a table, but I am having problems with fields with leading zeroes. Whenever I save as csv I lose the leading zeroes. Does anybody know how to prevent this?
View 1 RepliesI have a char(12) field that was loaded like '000000000101' I need to change the data to be ' 101'. Is there a way to do this and preserve the number and keep the leading spaces?
Thanks
In a t-sql 2012 select statement, I have a query that looks like the following:
SELECT CAST(ROUND(SUM([ABSCNT]), 1) AS NUMERIC(24,1)) from table1.
The field called [ABSCNT] is declared as a double. I would like to know how to return a number like 009.99 from the query. I would basically like to have the following:
1. 2 leading zeroes (basically I want 3 numbers displayed before the decimal point)
2. the number before the decimal point to always display even if the value is 0, and
3. 2 digits after the decimal point.
Thus can you show me the sql that I can use to meet my goal?
Hello All,
Can someone tell me how (in SQL) to convert an integer to a fixed length character filled with leading zeros. For example, I have an integer value of '125'. My user wants to see it displayed as '00000125'. How do I get the zeroes to fill in to a char(8) field when the length of the value differs, ie. '1', '125', '3452', etc.
Thanks in advance,
Terry
Padding leading zeroes for the months in End date
Example: actual data is like
6222007
,11301998
in end date column the following query works fine for 11301998 and converts it as 19981130 which was correct.
But 6222007
fails because month has no leading zero and it converts it as 0076222 which is wrong.
How can i make it as 20070622 with the following code
select (case when replace (ltrim(rtrim(ltrim([end date]))), '|', '') in ('99999999','00000000') then NULL
else substring ([END DATE],5,4)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],1,2)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],3,2) end) as ConvEnd_date
from Mydatabase.dbo.[AccountTable]

I am using SSIS 2012 SP1 to import a comma delimited csv file into a SQL table.
One of the fields carries a time value:
Source = textfile, column=DT_STR(8), value format = "hhmmss", e.g. "011525"
Destination = field in SQL table, data type = time(0)
To get it from the textfile to the SQL table I am:
1.) Creating a derived column called [d_Time of Entry]with the following formula -
SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],1,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],3,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],5,2)
2.) Performing a data conversion task to convert [d_Time of Entry] from DT_STR(8) to time(0) The upload fails because values that start with a zero, i.e. times before 10am, have their leading 0's stripped before being derived. You can see this because "011525" is derived as "11:52:5" when it should be "01:15:25".
I need to create an output from a T-SQL query that picks a numeric variable and uses the print function to output with leading zeroes if it is less than three characters long when converted to string. For example if the variable is 12 the output should be 012 and if the variable is 3 the output should be 003.
Presently the syntax I am using is PRINT STR(@CLUSTER,3) . But if @CLUSTER which is numeric is less than three characters I get spaces in front.
Hi ,
Sorry for those that think this is obvious but I have tried for good time and cannot solve this problem in a simple way.
How can I append a 0 in the form of varchar to a 1 with datatype integer
What Im trying to do is add an alternate column to the identity column in my table.
The identityt collumn seeds in 0 all the way up with increments of 1.
ie 0,1,2,...,n
howver, I need that for the values below 10 a zero is preapended
ie
01,02,03,...,09, and then the sequence continues normally, ie 10,11,...,n. I am trying to preapend the zeroes to the mentioned dinumbers in the new calculated column I created without success.
this is what I would like tot do
select IdentityCoulmn,('0'+ IdentityCoulmn) as CalculatedCoulumn
from MyTable
but its not working the result comes out the same ie 1,2..n
thank you
Hi,
I need a simpler way of doing this:
I've a number column which I need to show as a 3 digit field in a string:
Example:
number =1; string = 010
number =10; string =100
is there any function that can do this string manipulation?
Currently I'm using a CASE statement to check the length of this number column,
if its single digit I use:
SUBSTRING(('0' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0'),1,3)
else I use
CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0')
Is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks,
Subha

I have a column of type Decimal(14, 4) in my SQL server 2005 database.
When producing the result set on this column, i need to convert the values to varchar datatype and also i do not want the trailing zeroes to be displayed.
For eg:
If the value stored is 98.7500, my select query should provide an output of 98.75.
Similarly if the value stored is 98.0000, my select query should output 98.
I tried converting the value to "float" and then assigning to varchar data, however doing so i am incurring precision loss in some scenarios
See below:
Declare @ele as varchar(25)
Select @ele = Convert(float, 99999.9990)
select @ele
Output I received: 100000
Output I wanted: 99999.999
Are there any in-built functions in SQL to achieve what I need?
I am working on reporting services 2005 and i need to display zeroes in the report preview for the data which is not there in database,So pls help me if u can
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi over there, my first visit here and already the first question:
I need a SELECT-statement which formats all one-digit numbers with a leading zero.
IE:
1->01
2->02

10->10
11->11
I have fields like '0006','0007','0004'
etc. I need to convert this in 4 char field as right justify 6,7,4. How would I do that?
Another question:
fields in input file as 77,77.0,77.90,77.99,
I need to show them right justify in 10 chars field as 77.00,77.00,77.90 and 77.99
How would I do that?
Please help!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance!!
I am not a DBA whatsoever so please bear with me ...
There is an existing SQL table with 3 fields that are to gather numeric data:
Name - Data Type - Length
1. TPID1 - int - 4
2. TPID2 - int - 4
3. BPIN - int - 4
If any of the 3 above are submitted with a zero in front (input = 01234), the zero will not show. (output = 1234)
I thought if I changed Data Type to nvarchar, the data would be read just like text and appear as entered. (I reviewed other table designs and nvarchar is the data type for other similar data.) Saved the table changes and still the leading zero does not show.
Any advice would be appreciated - thanks

Hi all,
Anyone know how to transfer data from 1 or 2 characters to 3 characters.
For example we have mpc_code in source as 1, 2, 3 then target need to be 001, 002 and 003.
Then if 12, 13 then change to 012, 013. Put zero as leading space.
Thanks.

I would like to add leading zeros in the date. Thsi is my existing procedure, it adds leading zeros, but it formats using "yyyy/mm/dd", instead of "yyyy-mm-dd"
Select
Id, Title, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), ModifiedON, 111)

Row between @startRowIndex And @endRowIndex
I have some results data which looks like below
.00
.00
1.0
13.0
6.0
I need to push it into a table that accepts whole numbers. (none of the results actually will have a decimal like .05 or 1.5, all .00 will be 0)
What I need in the results is whole numbers, but if the results are 6.00 I need 06 to go into the table. I know a straight int convert will drop the decimals, and I could use a csae to set the .00 to 00, but what would be the best way to change the 6.00 to 06?

Brain is overloaded and I'm just not getting this! Ugh! I need a field that will be exported/displayed to contain 10 characters, no spaces. The field I'm extracting is 8 characters and the numerical data (int) is any range up to that. So I have 35795 and need it to be 0000035795 but I could also have a 1057893 and will need it to be 0001057893. I tried various forms of this...
Select '00' + Right (chk_no, 8)
and it's just not correct.
Anyone have a suggestion on what I'm not seeing?
TIA!

Hiya all,
I have a linked table between SQL and BTrieve.
I have a column that returns 1 ,2 ,10 etc.
In Btrieve the datatype is numeric and 3 digits long.
But in SQL I want 001 , 002 ,010.
Anyone got some code to programatically add 00 if 1,2,3
or add o if 10,11 or add none if 100,101
I also tried casting as in CAST(table.ID AS NUMERIC(3,0)) as Del_ID,
but SQL still returns 1,2,10 and not 001,002,010
Hi All,
I want to add a leading zero to a field based on a param that I create on the fly in my stored proc. I have a @month which is created from my datetime param @date.
@Month needs to be char(2) but if the month is inputted as '04' I get '4 ' in the table (note the space after 4)
How can I add a leading zero to this field?
Set @Year = right('0',1)year(@Date) is spitting it's toys out.
Thanks,
Brett
Hi Folks,
I have a situation where I need to display an integer with leading zeros, with a defined length.
Example, 43 appears as 00043 when the length is 5 and 000043 when the length
is 6.
I tried using "=Format(Fields!DirID.Value.ToString)" with different variations to no avail.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
