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.
I am trying to create a whole number DAX calculated column that is derived from a date column. Basically it gets the date from the source data column and outputs it as an integer in the YYYYMMDD format.So 01/OCT/2015 would become --> 20151001...I've been fidgeting with DAX but my problem is that I keep missing the leading zeroes for months and days. So 01/March/2015 becomes 201531 which is not what I want (I need 20150301 in this case).
Hi everyone.... I need a column in my table that its DataType should be as integer arrays how can I implemant it in my sqlserver table. Any help appreciated.
I need to add a column that has the datatype of integer with a seed and identity increment to a table that already exists and has data in it - and can't all NULLs. I have heard that this not possible if the table already exists.
I have downloaded the demo's of SQL Programmer and a couple of Embarcadero programs to see if that would help, but have had no succes to date.
I have a table that holds a number of offers made to a orginization for placements at a lecture. what im wanting to do is have each of the rows for a orginization repeated so that the names of people attending can be put into the database.
the result im looking to get is something like this where the name of the attendess would be inputed in an application. id | orginization | lecture | nameofattende 1 | orga | lec1 | j. blog 2 | orga | lec1 | s. smith 3 | orga | lec1 | h. samual 4 | orga | lec1 | j. sams 5 | orga | lec1 | b.j. james 6 | orgb | lec1 | m. curry 7 | orgb | lec1 | k. murry 8 | orgb | lec1 | g. hansen
I have two columns, one column has a document ID and a given document can have many pages. The second column has the pages. Now I want to find out when the page number is broken. For example, if doc ID 1 has 3 rows and each of the three has 1,2,3 and then the fourth row has document 1 but the value jumps from 3 to 7 and then goes to 8,9,10 and then jumps again and starts from 17, i want to have the ranges identified.
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 quite a few tables which allow NULL values. I have to struggle a lot with DBnull Exceptions :|example: col1,col2,... are all columns of type Integer and possibly NULL. var query = from person in table select new { person.col1, test = (int?) person.col2, person.col3, person.col4, ...}; As soon as my result encounters a DBNull value.. the whole query fails. This is really bad.How would I return the valid values.. and set the keys where there is no value to a null type? (e.g. int -> 0)I tried using "(int?)" but I'm not *really* sure what it does :-) Anyway.. it has no effect :-)

I am dealing with what I believe is Oracle that is the source of a SQL View.
I am seeing a data type of Integer in the View, but I am not able to see what makes up that View. When I query the View, I can see that an Integer data type column is storing a blank space. I use ISNUMERIC(ColumnName) = 0 and there are a lot of rows that show as a zero length blank space, or text, or something. I just know that it is not an Integer.
I have attempted to CAST and Convert this value, but it will not. I have changed the data type on the table that is being inserted in too, and it still fails with a Conversion error. I have tried REPLACE(), but still the same conversion error.
My question is, i guess, a simple one: When is it more convenient to use a uniqueid Data Type instead of a smallint, tinyint, bigint, etc (any type of int) when the field is gonna be the primary key for the table?
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.
Public Function insertReport(ByVal userID As String, ByVal taskID As Integer) As DataSet Dim ds As New DataSet Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter("INSERT INTO report(userID, taskID) VALUES ('" + userID + "', " + taskID + ")", cn) cn.Open() da.Fill(ds) cn.Close() Return ds End Function Above is my code I used to invoke when inserting a record. But i receive an error message when i try to insert the integer. I cannot see where the problem lies..my datatype in sql server is int. Can anyone see what is wrong with it. Thank you in advance.
I have an sql statmetn that counts all the votes in the table. i need this to calculate the quota. My problem is how to i get the value(i.e the count of the votes) into the area thats colored red below? SqlCommand SqlCmd1 = new SqlCommand("SELECT count(vote)FROM PRTest", SqlCon1); int quota = (count(Vote) + 1) / ((11) + 1); Response.Write(quota);
I use MS SQL Server 2005...Is there a structural advantage/disadvantage with using GUID as oposed to an integer?(also I use the sqltableprofileprovider and it doesnt seem to work with uniqueidentifiers)
I have a situation where I will have to insert a value(whole number) into the table where the the value is more than what the Integer can hold , I was wondering is there any other datatype which i can use other than integer
I had a field called camp is integer data type. I just found it had a default value, but the value is " (0) ", not just " 0 ". It should be 0, right? why it use (0), are they same? thanks.
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)

I have a table: Table_user
Inside a column user_no (integer) with value like 35678 (about 8000 rows) I would like to modifie all rows of this Table_user.user_no with a value of 60 at the begining of each value. For example : before 35678 will be 6035678 Its'a concatenation,but it's an integer value . so do i need to convert tehm to varchar first
I am building an application that counnts clicks on an ad. I use the integer field to count them but someone told me there is a limit number this field can count - is that correct? if so, is there a solution for my problem? Thanks and happy 2007! R
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) RETURNS DATETIME AS BEGIN DECLARE @IntegerToDatetime int DECLARE @time DATETIME SET @time = '2001-01-01' SET @IntegerToDatetime = CASE WHEN LEN(@int) = 7 THEN '20' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),2,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),4,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),6,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 6 THEN '19' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),1,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),3,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),5,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 5 THEN '200' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),1,1) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),2,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),4,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 4 THEN cast(@time AS INT)
I wanted to hear from you - if you've used any unique integer generation technique in the context of a disconnected smart client/local data store and have been successful with it.
