No idea about this MS SQL %(

Thanks for your quick reply. I understand your logic perfectly. The problem, is that when the EXACT same tables are used in SQL Server 2008 R1 (10.0.1600.22) there is no problem. This same code works perfectly.

Now just restore the identical tables to SQL Server 2008 R2, and we get the error. It’s consistent it happens repeatedley in R2 (10.50.1600.1) and is does NOT happen in R1.

The data are identical, the code is identical, R1 works great and R2 raises the stated error. How can the data be causing the problem in this case? I don’t see how a .bak Restore from R1 into R2 can cause changes in data.

Moving into SQL Server 2008 R2, we immediately encounter Msg. 8115 – Arithmetic overflow error converting tinyint to data type numeric.

But the field being inserted was varchar not numeric !!
for example:
use Source Table
insert into j5_Test_Inserts.dbo.jwjobs
(
job_no
)
select
job_no
from import_jobs

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Msg 8115, Level 16, State 6, Line 6
Arithmetic overflow error converting tinyint to data type numeric.

WHAT WAS THE CHANGE IN SQL SERVER 2008 R2 ??

I’m having this same error but i get the error when running a Stored Procedure. I also noticed that I get the error only for a 10 day range in February. I can run the same stored procedure for all other date ranges this year and last year.

I’m not really sure how to determine the data field length in a Stored procedure, when the data is not getting outputted into a table.

,SUM(CASE WHEN QIV.PSRouteReasonId = 11 THEN DATEDIFF(second,QIV.PSBeginTime,QIV.PSEndTime) ELSE NULL END) AS AvgTakenLastQueue
,SUM(CASE WHEN QIV.PSRouteReasonId = 11 THEN DATEDIFF(second,QIV.QSQBeginTime,QIV.PSEndTime) ELSE NULL END) AS AvgTakenContQueue

Those are the two lines that are giving me the error message.

Any thoughts?

Thank you

Query seems ok, It should run if that table exists in same database you run a query.

Could you please post an Error Description, so we can figure it out?

Thanks,
