Convert to valid decimal data type
I have a column [Cash] nvarchar(50)
that has data that will later be converted to decimal(9,3)
during an import process,some of the data is consistent with normal looking numeric valu开发者_如何学编程es such as 134.630,-80.662 and 324.372. Occasionally I have data with multiple dots for the numeric values such as 1.324.372 and -2.134.630.
Is there a way of removing this extra dot.
declare @yourtable table(cash varchar(20))
insert @yourtable values('1.324.372')
insert @yourtable values('-2.134.630')
insert @yourtable values('1.234.567.89')
Old Code:
select reverse(replace(replace(stuff(reverse(cash), charindex(
'.', reverse(cash)), 1, ','), '.', ''), ',', '.'))
from @yourtable
Slightly upgraded code(result is the same):
select reverse(stuff(reverse(replace(cash, '.', '')),
charindex('.', reverse(cash)), 1, '.'))
from @yourtable
Result:
1324.372
-2134.630
1234567.89
You could;
select case when len(cash) - len(replace(cash, '.', '')) > 1 then
reverse(stuff(reverse(cash), charindex('.', reverse(cash)), 1, ''))
else
cash
end
from T
Create a view that includes a calculated field with the proper value.
That way you can still see the varchar value and the corresponding decimal value.
Something like this:
select
[Cash],
cast(replace([Cash],'.','') as decimal) as [CashDecimal]
from ....
