Please use convert funtion you can able to find the expected date formats

Declare @Str as Datetime

set @Str = ‘19770319′

select convert(varchar(10),@Str,111) as ExportDate

To search for a list like that, you can use Dynamic SQL.

I have a table with column chapterid as int

stored procedure
@chapterid int,
SELECT * FROM Chapters WHERE Chapter IN (@chapterid)

@chapter has multiple values like @chapterid = ‘5,6,7,8′
this gives me cast error

how do I convert this varchar to an int? A simple convert or cast statement doesn’t work. Any help would be much
appreciated.

DECIMAL(20, 14) allows for 6 digits to the left of the decimal point. Your number has 11. Hence the overflow.

Perhaps you mean to use DECIMAL(20, 6), which allows 14 to the left and only 6 on the right.

I have used to this query,.

declare @v varchar(50)
set @v=’-10851776011.372′
select cast(cast(@v as float) as DECIMAL(20,14)) as Value1

The error it will come like,
Arithmetic overflow error converting float to data type numeric.

How can i convert this type of values,,

Help me please…

Please give me the solution

Please imagine this situation.
In a column i have “cx.20″ or “cx.5″ and in another column i have “10″. My goal is to multiply the first with the second, obviouslly i can only multiply 20 with 10. My doubt is how?I tried so many ways and always this error “error converting data type varchar to numeric”.

Also in the first column i have “Un” without numbers…in that case the multiplying result would be the number in the second column.

Please help me!

Here’s what i tried
([Malaquias$Sales Line].[Quantity]*PARSENAME([Malaquias$Sales Line].[Qty_ per Unit of Measure],1)) as qtdpedida,
sum([Malaquias$Sales Invoice Line].[Quantity]*PARSENAME([Malaquias$Sales Invoice Line].[Qty_ per Unit of Measure],1))as qtdenviada
——————————————————————————
where Quantity is column 2 and and qty_ per unit of measure is column 1

My requirement is
When n=2
I want to round 18.005 to 18.01 or 18.0049 to 18.00(at 100th place)

when i try with

Declare @real real
Set @real=18.005
print Round(Convert(Decimal(15,7),Convert(varchar(30),@real)),2)

i can able to get the result until i get some indefinite real value like -4.8892562E-08. so when i try the same logic, i am getting a conversion error(Error converting data type varchar to numeric.). Please help me to get the problem resolved. thanks in advance

Thanks and Regards

I found the following messege from BOOKS-Online which has been published by Microsoft on November-2008. Please have a look at it and reply to my mail if there is any wrong…

Automatic data type conversion is not supported for the text and image data types. You can explicitly convert text data to character data, and image data to binary or varbinary, but the maximum length is 8000 bytes.
-> If you try an incorrect conversion such as trying to convert a character expression that includes letters to an int, SQL Server returns an error message.

Actually I had a requirement that Conversion of some text to an integer value. I used the functions CAST/CONVERT to do this. But I got the error messege like “Conversion failed when converting the varchar value ‘N/A’ to data type int.”

It currently translates the field to DT-Numeric but the cents is dropped. It ends up being 25.00 instead of 25.12.

Thank you,

I need a SQL to fine the amount of time this person was logged on and I am having the worst time.

Can you help?

you a saved my skin again.

Come to myanmar we will treat you best.

If you have specific “0″ to append before Number. You can use Replicate function of SQL.

Example:

DECLARE @t as NUMERIC(8,2)
SELECT @t = 08.23
SELECT CAST(REPLICATE(0,5-LEN(@t)) AS VARCHAR(5)) + CAST(@t AS VARCHAR(5))

Here I specify that there should be 5 length. In this case 8.23 has four digit, so this will add one “0″ to this number.

You can find it at: http://tejasnshah.wordpress.com/2009/02/26/sql-server-replicate-function/

This will fix your problem.

Thanks,
