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.
I have a numeric data field called Price and this has a value of 0.000 in the db. when i create a package to extract this data to a flat file, the value is displayed as .000 what should i do to make it appear as 0.000 in the flat file.
I tried using a derived column expression where i check if the db value is 0.000 and display it as a string "0.000". this works fine if the OLEDB source is a sql command but fails if the OLEDB source is a sql command from variable.
I searched the forums for 'Retain leading 0 in datetime field' and received 0 hits.
I have a client who needs me to export SQL data as a txt file. All of the varchar fields are working well. I am having a problem with the datetime field. In my SQL table, I have a datetime field named 'Date_Acquired'. I enter the date as 04/28/2008 but it shows up in the table as 4/28/2008 and exports to text as 4/28/2008. Is there an easy way within my export Stored Procedure to reformat the datetime field to retain the leading zero? I have explored the CAST and CONVERT statements but have been unsuccessful so far.
I am trying to use several tables that have one 10-character text field in common. Most of the records have a numeric expression, but some tables have leading 0's, and some don't. I can't cast the field to numbers because there are some records that have letters also. What function can I use to get rid of all the 0s at the left of each record? (Sort of a LTRIM function that gets rid of 0s instead of spaces).
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.
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?
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) --CAST(YEAR(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(4))+'-'+CAST(MONTH(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(2))+'-'+CAST(DAY(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(2))as ModifiedOn From ActiveAds Where Row between @startRowIndex And @endRowIndex
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? THanks
MSSQL2000 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!
I am unable to see how to generate a leading zero.
Table A
declare @TableA table ( ID numeric , Fruits varchar(10) ) insert @TableA select 1,'Oranges' union all select 2,'Mangoes' union all select 3,'Apricots'
ID Table A 1 Apples 2 Oranges 3 Grapes 4 Apricots
declare @TableB table ( seed numeric , ) insert @TableB select 080513000448 union all select 080513000449 union all select 080513000450
Table B seed 080513000448 080513000449 080513000450
I wrote the following query but i need generate a leading zero not sure which function can help maybe the right function but i am not sure how to use it in this case
SELECTconvert(varchar(10), getdate(), 12) + (SELECT CASE WHEN SUBSTRING(ISNULL(max(seed),'00000'),1,6) = convert(varchar(10), getdate(), 12) THEN SUBSTRING(ISNULL(max(seed),'00000'),7,12) ELSE '000000' END AS SEED FROM B) + (row_number() over (order by Id)) as SEED FROM A
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
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.
mssql 2000, asp.net(vbscript) How am i able to trim leading zeros? Right now i have two values:00000005 500000010 1000000015 15..... etc... how do i write a query where i can select an argument where 5 = 0000005? the column with 00000005 is varchar and5 is numeric
What is the best way to check for leading spaces in your table, using ltrim? Such as TableA(name, city) the data in TableA Smith Dallas John New York Greg Richmond David Chicago Return only David.
I have a problem while importing data from Excel to SQL Server.The leading zeros in data get truncated.Even if I try and change the excel data column as 'Text' and copy paste the data back into the Text column, the problem persists.Does any one have any thoughts about this problem?
Is it possible to have leading zero for an auto increment id field? I need to do this when i am migrating a table. I am thinking if i cannot do this when migrating then i will have to use stored procedure to achieve this.
Hello All,None of the solutions I have found in the archives seem to solve myproblem. I have a date column in my tables (stored as a char(10))which I would like to append a leading zero to for those dates thatstart with 9 or lower.Any ideas?Thanks,Mike
I have an SSIS routine which uses a simple SQL select statement from a SQL Server 2005 database and then goes to a Flat File destination. The field (dischstatuscode) is a nvarchar(50) and it may contain data with leading zeros.
Code Snippet Select DischStatusCode from dbo.pm
...which returns: 01 23 37 05 04 41
When I open up the csv file produced by the SSIS routine, I see the following: 1 23 37 5 4 41
I use the following code to fill the missing leading zero from datepart sys function. Is there another way simple to get the leading zero if month < 10 and/or if day < 9? -D
I 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
I'm looking for a string function (or any other quick way) for adding a leading zero to make a string two characters long. For example, if the input is '12' the result will be '12' but if the input is '1', the result will be '01'.
It's actually about making a month number two characters long but I've understood there is no way to make Datediff() to fix it for me.
I thought there might be a string function for this, like there is in many programming languages, but I can't find anything in BOL. I want to keep it simple, because it will be used in a Select and a Group By for aggregating data based on time intervals (year + month).
And, I assume I can't make Datepart() to return year + month directly, only one of the parts at a time.
I am creating a view which involved concatenation of 2 int columns.
The data in the columns look like
Column 1 Column 2 1234 1 12345 11
I am trying to get the following output
001234001 012345011
So the first column should have zeros padded to the front to make 6 numbers, the second column should be 3 numbers long with zeros in front. So when added together it is 9 numbers long.
I have a table called Table1 which has a field called ProductID (nvarchar type). The records are numeric, and each record may have different length of characters. The maximum length of character is 13. The records are like this
ProductID 7830005602 7378 64975259599 1380010072
As you can see it has records of different length. In my SELECT a) first I want to make the ProductID length of 13 characters by adding leading zero's, if lenght of characters is already 13 then I will not add any leading zeros. b) Once all records have a length of 13 character then I want to put a dash "-" after first 8 characters. This way the final lenght of characters would be 14. I want to do a) & b) in one single SELECT statement.
So my final output for above example would be, 00078300-05602 00000000-07378 00649752-59599 00013800-10072
