Float Data Type
Oct 27, 2000
We are using a GL package called Solomon. It uses SQL Server 7.0 for it's database. I want to create a data warehouse using this data as the source. The package uses the float data type for dollar amounts. The dollar amounts in the data have either no numbers, 1 number, or 2 numbers after the decimal point. Is the float data type the best one to use in my data warehouse for dollars and cents, or should I try using the monetary or decimal (precision 2) data type? Which type uses the most storage?

Hi,
I can populate a dataTable with type double (C#) of say '1055.01' however when I save these to the CE3.5 database using a float(CE3.5) I lose the decimal portion. The 'offending' code is:
this.court0TableAdapter1.Update(this.mycourtsDataSet1.Court0);
this.mycourtsDataSet1.AcceptChanges();
this.court0TableAdapter1.Fill(this.mycourtsDataSet1.Court0);
This did not happen with VS2005/CE3.01.
I have tried changing all references to decimal (or money in CE3.5) without luck.
I'm beginning to think that string may be the way to go!!!!!!!
Can someone shed some light on my problem.
Thanks,
Later:
It's necessary to update the datatable adapter as the 3.01 and 3.5 CE are not compatible.

I am using SQL Server 7.0. I create a table with one field..type of float.
Using SQL Server Query Analyzer:
INSERT INTO MyTable(MyField) VALUES (4.9)
INSERT INTO MyTable(MyField) VALUES (Round(4.9,2))
SELECT * FROM MyTable
Result = 4.9000000000000004
This is a basic example of a problem I am having in another table with the
same float field that I am using to store money in. I don't want to use
the money field as the BDE from Borland has some issues with money fields.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I have declared a field with datatype as float.
When I enter value with two precision it chooses to round off to lower value and insert into the database.
I am losing precision in this case.
I want to insert 4.56. It inserts the way shown and hence all my further calculations go haywire.
Is SQL server designed to store float like this or Am I doing soemting wrong ???
Please advise...
4.56 (Inserted)
4.5599999999999996 (Stored)

Hai...
Hopefully ur guys can help me. I declare data type as float in price table. So the problem here is, whenever i enter a float number and move to the second row to enter a new number. The first number in the first row will automatically change to integer, without no reason. For example "2.3" will become "25".
Is there any configuration that need to do.

1. In c++ (or any other language) I'm copying bit by bit to a doublevariable dob_var.2. If I copy dob_var to dob_var2 which is also a double I do not loseinformation.3. This implies that the same would be when copying to a data base, butwhen I write dob_var to an sql server float field (same size as adouble variable = 64 bit) it sometimes loses information. e.g. whenvalue=1E-320.It is true that SQL float is valid until 1E-308 but so is a C++ double.Any comments?

Hello,
I have a simple question. Is it at all possible to replace columns which has nulls with blank spaces for a float data type column.
The columns has null values( written)) in it in some rows and has numbers in other rows . I want to remove nulls before copying it to another file.
Thanks

In the following code I want to compare 2 values: AccessVal and SQLVal. The values are stored as nvarchars, so I'm isolating the numeric values in a subquery. Notice I'm only selecting 1 row. The commented line, where I compare the values, is throwing the error.
SELECT QA_AutoID, AccessVal, SQLVal
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, AccessVal,1)),0) as AccessFloat
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, SQLVal,1)),0) as SQLFloat
FROM QA
WHERE QA_AutoID in (
SELECT TOP 1 QA_AutoID
FROM QA
WHERE ISNUMERIC(SQLVal) = 1 AND ISNUMERIC(AccessVal) = 1
)
--AND ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, AccessVal,1)),0) <> ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, SQLVal,1)),0)
ORDER BY ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, AccessVal,1)),0) DESC
,ROUND(ABS(CONVERT(float, SQLVal,1)),0) DESC
Here is the output with the comparison commented out...
Here's what I get with the comparison line activated:
I've tried converting to numeric, int and bigint instead of float. I've tried CAST instead of CONVERT. Nothing works.

Hello,
I have a problem with the round of SQL Server 2K on the float data type.
In my application I do a SQL request for find a row in a table of SQL Server 2K.
This is the request :
SELECT DISTINCT N_ROW_ID FROM COMM WHERE N_ARTICLE_ID=79510 AND N_DATASOURCE_ID=1 AND N_SOURCE_ID=-102 AND N_PROVIDER_ID=-100
AND N_LEAD_TIME IS NULL AND N_UNIT_PRICE = 329.78 AND N_UNIT_PRICE_CURRENCY_ID=1
N_UNIT_PRICE is a float data type.
In the line need, the field N_UNIT_PRICE has 329.78 but with the round of SQL Server 2K I have 329.779999999999997.
So I never find the row
Do you have a solution for comparate a float flied with SQL Server round and a float send in a request as my 329.78?
I can't transform the column in decimal or numeric data type.
Is it possible to Disable the function?

Happy Friday!
A while since I have posted a question, and this one is probably real easy.
I am trying to store numeric values from a php form in MSSQL 2000 database. However, the columns are set to float and if the value is 1.00, when entered into the table it is saved as 1
If I change the column type to money, the query fails, with an error message of conversion of datatype varchar to datatype money statement terminated.
anybody know what I need to do? do I need to do something in my query to specify that this is NOT varchar data?

I have a field called PPH and this field type float. so, this field could be null, 0.0, or values. I am using case statement:
 Â
[PPH] = case when h.HoursFloat = 0 then 0 else
round(s.Pledges / h.HoursFloat,2) end,
I am trying to add where if h.HourFloat is null then 0 but, it does not work. I have tried different ways such as
[PPH] = CASE isnull (h.HoursFloat,0)Â
when 0 then 0 else ....
How to add another condition to check on null then 0.

After testing out the application i write on the local pc. I deploy it to the webserver to test it out. I get this error.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The conversion of a char data type to a
datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
Notes: all pages that have this error either has a repeater or datagrid which load data when page loading.
At first I thought the problem is with the date, but then I can see
that some other pages that has datagrid ( that has a date field) work
just fine.
anyone having this problem before?? hopefully you guys can help.

We have some columns in a table where the date is stored as 19980101 (YYYYMMDD). The data type for this column is NUMBER(8) in Oracle.
I need to copy rows from Oracle to SQL Server using SSIS. I used the Data Conversion transformation editor to change it to DT_DATE, but the rows are not being inserted to the destination.
On Error, If I fail the component, then the error is :
There was an error with input column "ORDER_DATE_CONV" (1191) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (29). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".

I can't take full credit for this. I want to share this with Jeff Moden who did the important research for this calculation here.
All I did was just adapting some old code according to the mantissa finding Jeff made and optimized it a little
Some test codeDECLARE@SomeNumber FLOAT,
@BinFloat BINARY(8)
SELECT@SomeNumber = -185.6125,
@BinFloat = CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))
SELECT@SomeNumber AS [Original],
CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8)) AS [Binary],
dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Converted],
@SomeNumber - dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Error]
And here is the code for the function.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float
(
@BinaryFloat BINARY(8)
)
RETURNS FLOAT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE@Part TINYINT,
@PartValue TINYINT,
@Mask TINYINT,
@Mantissa FLOAT,
@Exponent SMALLINT,
@Bit TINYINT,
@Ln2 FLOAT,
@BigValue BIGINT
SELECT@Part = 1,
@Mantissa = 1,
@Bit = 1,
@Ln2 = LOG(2),
@BigValue = CAST(@BinaryFloat AS BIGINT),
@Exponent = (@BigValue & 0x7ff0000000000000) / EXP(52 * @Ln2)
WHILE @Part <= 8
BEGIN
SELECT@Part = @Part + 1,
@PartValue = CAST(SUBSTRING(@BinaryFloat, @Part, 1) AS TINYINT),
@Mask =CASE WHEN @Part = 2 THEN 8 ELSE 128 END
WHILE @Mask > 0
BEGIN
IF @PartValue & @Mask > 0
SET @Mantissa = @Mantissa + EXP(-@Bit * @Ln2)
SELECT@Bit = @Bit + 1,
@Mask = @Mask / 2
END
END

I have a field that is currently stored as the data type nvarchar(10), and all of the data in this field is in the format mm/dd/yyyy or NULL. I want to convert this field to the smalldatetime data type. Is this possible?
I've tried to use cast in the following way, (rsbirthday is the field name, panelists is the table), but to no avail.
SELECT rsbirthday CAST(rsbirthday AS smalldatetime)
FROM panelists
the error returned is "incorrect syntax near 'rsbirthday'.
I'm rather new to all things SQL, so I only have the vaguest idea of what I'm actually doing.
Thanks for the help!

while (dr.Read()){ Education e = new Education(); e.EducationId = dr.GetInt32(0); e.Country = dr.GetInt32(1); e.InstitutionName = dr.GetString(2); e.Grade = dr.GetString(3); e.CGPA = dr.GetFloat(4); // ERROR HERE e.Percentage = dr.GetFloat(5); e.PassingYear = dr.GetString(6);}
where as in Education CGPA is also the float property can any one tell me how to read 0 value of float from SQL server

Hello,
I am connecting to MSSQL through ODBC using regular SQL commands (SQLAllocHandle, SQLConnect, SQLFetch). Sometimes when I retrieve float data from the server it gets corrupted. For instance, instead of 59.457443 I will actually get 59.45744299999998. The value that is stored in the database is 59.457443 and it is stored as a float. The code I use to retrieve the data worked OK with an Access database, the problem only appeared after switching to MSSQL. Does anybody know if it's a configuration issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
Am I missing something or is there something odd with float data types. i know that float is not the most precise definition but i came across something really odd today.
first let me define the scenario.
this is sql server 2005, standard edition build 3042.
I have a table defined as
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ASSET](
[Property_Num] [numeric](10, 0) NOT NULL,
[Accrual_Factor_Val] [float] NULL
)
the accrual_factor_val was updated to a value of 0.00005 then the web service failed because the proc returned 5E-05!
i opened the table, and discovered this is the stored value. is this correct?
thoughts and ideas?
thanks for your input!

Hi,
The table in SQL has column Availability Decimal (8,8)
Code in c# using sqlbulkcopy trying to insert values like 0.0000, 0.9999, 29.999 into the field Availability
we tried the datatype float , but it is converting values to scientific expressions€¦(eg: 8E-05) and the values displayed in reports are scientifc expressions which is not expected
we need to store values as is
Error:
base {System.SystemException} = {"The given value of type SqlDecimal from the data source cannot be converted to type decimal of the specified target column."}
"System.InvalidOperationException: The given value of type SqlDecimal from the data source cannot be converted to type decimal of the specified target column. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: The given value of type SqlDecimal from the data source cannot be converted to type decimal of the specified target column. ---> System.ArgumentException: Parameter value '1.0000' is out of range.

Code in C#
SqlBulkCopy bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(sqlConnection, SqlBulkCopyOptions.Default);

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
DataColumn dc;
try

dr["Availability"] = Convert.ToDecimal(s[2]); ------ I tried SqlDecimal
€¦€¦€¦.
}

I am trying to use the Bulk Insert Task to load from a csv file. My final column is a bit that is nullable. My file is an ID column that is int, a date column that is mm/dd/yyy, then 20 columns that are real, and a final column that is bit. I've tried various combinations of codepage and datafiletype on my task component. When I have RAW with Char, I get the error included below. If I change to RAW/Native or codepage 1252, I don't have an issue with the bit; however, errors start generating on the ID and date columns.
I have tried various data type settings on my flat file connection, too. I have tried DT_BOOL and the integer datatypes. Nothing seems to work.
I hope someone can help me work through this.
Thanks in advance,
SK
