Convert Char(24) To Datetime Fails
Dec 17, 2007I'm trying to convert a char(24) column to the datetime format. This is my query:
select CONVERT(datetime, [Date], 121) from Table
The date in the char(24) column has this format: 2007-12-14 14:45:31.735
When executing this statemant it says it cannot convert this char to datetime. But when I execute this statement, it works:

Convert Char(1) To Int
Feb 12, 2008I'm looking through some data in a third party application, trying to figure something out for a report. There is a char(1) column holding control characters that apparently effects the status of certain records, and whether they should appear on the report. I want to look at the integer value of those characters rather than the character representation, but I can't get it to work. I keep getting "Error converting data type varchar to numeric." I'm trying to do something like this:
Code:
SELECT CONVERT(int, MyColumn) As IntValue FROM MyTable
I've tried every combination of cast and convert I can think of, as well as numeric data types other than int. There aren't that many distinct values, so I'm just going to do this manually, but I still want to know why it won't work, or what I'm doing wrong. Any thoughts?

View 3 Replies View RelatedConvert T/F Char To Bit DataType
Jun 4, 2008Hi all,
There are several columns called enabled with a char datatype in my database. One enabled column per table. These columns either have a value of T or F (true or false), depending on whether they're enabled or not. I want to change these columns to a bit datatype and insert the relevant value of true or false...
I guess the best way to do this is to add a new column to a table with a bit datatype, and based on the value in the current enabled column, insert TRUE or FALSE.
Anyone ideas on the best way to accomplish this?
Thanks.

Cannot Convert Char To Money
Sep 27, 2007I've been trying to solve this problem or just find an alternative to do this. I have filled a temp table with certain values for all columns except those columns that rely on calculations that need certain cell values from other columns in the temp table. I have a while statement that runs through each cell for one calculation column and this is the code that updates the fields on the calc column:
Code Block
EXEC('UPDATE #tblTemp
SET #tblTemp.['+@CalcColumns+'] = (CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column1+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''), 0.00)as money) - CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column2+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+''') , 0.00)as money))
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''')
The problem is that it will not let me convert the two values to money. The error is:
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
This is necessary to calculate the difference between these two cells from the temp table. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!
Conert Char To Datetime

I am using DTS to transfer records form old table to new table. How do I write a procedure (or something) to enable conversion of the records 12mid and 12noon to 12am and 12pm.

Datatype Convert Char To Numeric
Dec 31, 2003Hi,
I read the topic from JROdden and this case is similiar but...
I got several varchar fields with
values like
1.2
1.3
... these I can covert with
select CONVERT(dec(5,2), fieldname) as fieldname
In fact I also solved undefined- and NULL-values with.
CONVERT(decimal(12, 2), CASE WHEN GESCHKOSTMAX IS NULL OR
GESCHKOSTMAX < '0' THEN '0' ELSE GESCHKOSTMAX END) as GESCHKOSTMAX,
But now there are values like
1,4 and these ones neither CONVERT nor CAST will handle.
I tried the
SELECT DISTINCT KMPAUSCHALE
FROM extr_INTFIRMA
WHERE (isnumeric(KMPAUSCHALE) = 1)
and get
0,40
0.25
0.30 and so on...
The error is:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Driver][SQL Server]Error converting datatype varchar to decimal. (or float or numeric (whatever I tried))
I think the easiest way would be to insist on higher data quality but
I also would like to solve this interesting challenge.
Thanks for any hints
By the way, I followed rudys link to
http://rudy.ca/afdb.html
and now I know how I could protect myself !!!!

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Convert Numeric Value To CHAR(7)
Sep 22, 2014I have to store the result of a calculation in a column of type CHAR(7) (and am unable to change the column type).
The calculation can have results ranging in size from 0.1234567 to 99999999.
In the first case, I would need to store the value of 0.12345 in the column. In the later case, an error should be thrown.
So I need to store all of the significant digits from the left of the decimal (if there are < 7) and as many of the digits to the right as will fit into a CHAR(7), with the remaining precision being truncated.
