What Is The Best Way To Concotanate Two Integer Fields?
Dec 14, 2006
one of our marketing people downloads the DNC list from the FTC or one of the other F agencies. he then screens his cold calling list against it. he wants to put it into sql to make it faster.
it's a text file and imports 2 fields. The area code and the phone number. I want to import it as integers so i can put some logic to automatically screen his list against it. I can't concontanate two integers into a third column so I'm looking for some advice.
should i import them as strings originally, dump to a flat file and then import the full phone number as an integer? Or is there a better way?

Yesterday we ran into a very surprising problem: a colleague had developed a view which calculated a numbero of domain functions on an integer field (sum, count, standard deviation, average).
We were amazed to find that the view always returned an integer value for the average (not for the std dev, though). This was obviously wrong. We even tried changing the function to Sum(fld)/Count(fld) where "fld" was the fieldname, but we still got this strange curious result.
I got around the problem using the CONVERT function to change the integer value into a floating (e.g. Avg(CONVERT(FLOAT(5),fld)), but this is so strange that I'm sure we'll have the same problem again and again.
Now, can anyone tell me why the SQL engine is so incredibly stupid to presume that the average of a series of integer values is necessarily an integer???

Working on a new database where the Date and Time are stored in a Date Time Field.
Then working on an OLDER database file within the same SQL Database contains these 2 items as integers:
transDate = "71615" (July 16, 2015)
transTime = "12345" (01:23:45 AM)
How do we convert both of them into a single SQL DateTime field such as "2015-07-16 01:23:45.000" so that it can be used in a join restricting to a date time in a different SQL File that properly has the DateTime in it?
This works well for converting the transDate Part in the select statement:
dbo.IntegerToDate(at.transDate) as transDate
* That returns: "2015-07-16 00:00:00.000"
* The resulting data must work directly in a Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Query using either using the "on" statement or part of the "where" clause. In other words, NOT as a stored procedure!
Also must be able to be used as a date difference calculation when comparing the 2 files Within say + or - 5 seconds.

I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sirisha

I am using MS SQL 2012. I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it. Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:
I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:
ID, provider_name, uniq_id, total_spent, total_earned
Here is sample data:
1, Harbor, A07B8, 500.00, 1200.00
2, Harbor, A07B8, 400.00, 800.00
3, Harbor, B01C8, 600.00, 700.00
4, Harbor, B01C8, 300.00, 1100,00
5, LifeLine, L01D8, 700.00, 1300.00
6, LifeLine, L01D8, 200.00, 800.00
I need the results to be just 3 lines:
Harbor, A07B8, 900.00, 2000.00
Harbor, B01C8, 900.00, 1800.00
LifeLine, L01D8, 900.00, 2100.00
But then I would need the totals for the Provider, so:
Harbor, 1800.00, 3800.00

Pardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.
In a nutshell, how can I write something like:
UPDATE "TABLENAME"
SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2
WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)
I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.

I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).
Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.

Hi people
My users are having troubles with link to default drillthrough report when reports are exported to excel (they REALLY don't like this behavior ), so I decided set all of them disabled in report model, this work fine, but calculated field in reports has this drillthrough link.
Let me show you the situation. Entity Product has an UnitaryCost field, I set the EnableDrillthrough Property in False so when I export a report with this field, no link is shown.
But if I create in the report a calculated field Round(UnitaryCost) this field has a Drillthrough Link
Is this the standard and expected behavior? or its simply a BUG?
Have I done something wrong in my model? and in this case, How I can correct this?
regards.
Julio Diaz.

Hi All,
If I run "SELECT 610/100", query analyser returns 6! (wrong)
If I run "SELECT 610.0/100", query analyser returns 6.100000! (correct)
I know I can get the correct result by running "SELECT Cast(610.0 as Float)/100", but why doesn't the first example return 6.1?
Is there some setting on my server which says Integer / Integer = Integer ?
Regards

hi all,
i have an autonumber field (primary key) and another integer field as part of a table. What i want to do is when a record is created, the default value of the integer field should be the_autonumber+1000 for eg record with pk 82 will have an integer field that's automatically 1082. Would it be possible to do this ? Thanks in advance.

In my database I have a table called "users" with a varchar-field that holds categori-id's commaseparated, collected from my other table "category". I do this to control access for my users, some users are only allowed access to some categories. I would like to run a statement sort of like this:select categoryname
from category
where catid in (select categories from user where userid = 12)Naturally, because catid and the field categories have different datatypes I get the error "Syntax error converting the varchar value '340, 344, 356' to a column of data type int."
Is there any way I can bypass this keeping the commaseparated values and without making a new normalized table instead?
(same question is also posted at sql-server-performance.com forums)

Can I put a constraint on an integer column that will only allow a certain range of numbers to be entered, or do I have to put that into the application layer only?
I'd like the range to be 0 to 30 as the only allowable values. The only thing that I could think of was to create another table and populate with 0,1,2...,30 and put a foreign key on the new column that wouldn't allow anything not in that list but I was wondering if there was a better way.

Trying to write the most effective UDF to convert INT to Datetime.
We have a column from a table on AS400 that is a INT type. Some are 4, 5, 6 ,7 digits. I have the 4 digits right. I need to fix it for 5 and 6 digits.
ALTER FUNCTION IntegerToDatetime (@int INT)

DECLARE @IntegerToDatetime int
DECLARE @time DATETIME
SET @time = '2001-01-01'
SET @IntegerToDatetime =

+ '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),4,2) AS int)
+ '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),6,2) AS int)

SELECT *

WHERE AccountExpires IS NOT NULL AND AccountExpires not in('0','0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF','9223372036854775807','')
AccountExpires returns values like 128514708000000000 (This value represents the number of 100 nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601 )
How do I convert this value to Datetime?
select getdate() returns a value like 2008-04-18 10:00:00.00 and that's how I'd like my AccountExpires
