Formatted Values in Stored Procedures

Hello,
I have to put some data from an SQL Server 2000 DB to a
Word document containing some numeric values (money).
I use a stored procedure like this
select field1 + ' ' + field2 + ' ' + field3 ...
from table1 where ...
So I get back one long string. How can I get all numeric
values in this string formatted? There is no format
function like in VB/A.
Second: I'd like to have a tab (Ascii 9) instead of ' ':
How can I get this?

www.trappdata.deFormatted like what?
Take a look at this
DECLARE @.v MONEY
SELECT @.v = 1322323.6666
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,@.v,0) --1322323.67 Rounded but not formatted
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,@.v,1) --1,322,323.67 Formatted with commas
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,@.v,2) --1322323.6666 No formatting
If you have a decimal field it doesn't work with the convert function.
The work around is to cast it to money
DECLARE @.v2 DECIMAL (36,10)
SELECT @.v2 = 13243543.56565656
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(MONEY,@.v2),1) --13,243,543.57 Formatted
with commas

formating decimals

Hi, I got money types coming out of the db.
I use #,##0.## all is swell 14.1400 comes out as 14.14,
14.0000 comes out as 14
but then I get 0 or 0.00, it comes out 0.00
I want it to be just 0
ThanksI would compare the value with what you consider a small enough value to be
taken as zero and use the appropriate formatting
iif(abs(dbvalue) < 0.0001, "0", "#,##0.##")

Format money value as padded string

Ok my last formatting question.

How can I insert a money value as a padded string in another table?

example $1.25 gets inserted to another table as 00000125

I want 8 total characters and no decimal

another example would be 4,225.99 becomes 00422599

can this be done?

thank you!!declare @.m money
set @.m = $1.25

select @.m, RIGHT(REPLICATE('0',8) +
convert(varchar(8),convert(int,@.m*100)),8)

I had a similar project. I did this and it works great:

REPLACE(REPLACE(CONVERT(char(8), @.m), '.', ''), ' ', '0')

-Utah|||thanks that worked great.

any idea why this doesn't work:

REPLACE(CONVERT(CHAR(4),SUM(tblLines.fldUnits)),' ','0')

it just won't seem to put the zero in...very strange

i get this for 15: '15 '|||(paulmac106@.gmail.com) writes:

Good question. Seems like the reailing spaces are stripped when the
string is passed to replace(). Probably, because there is a conversion
to varchar, but trailing spaces should be retained, as long as the
setting ANSI_PADDING is in effect.

It looks like a bug to me.

For what it's worth, I submitted
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLSe...edbackID=259840
But since it works this way in SQL 2000, I would not really expect
any fix. It could break existing code.

I've submitted a workaround to this Feedback item. If you
concatenate the empty string '' to the CHAR value before
REPLACE is applied, the hidden conversion to VARCHAR
retains the trailing blanks.

declare @.t char(6)
set @.t = 'A'
select
replace(@.t,space(1),'*'),
replace(@.t+'',space(1),'*')

Format money MS SQL field data as number with commas and no decimals

If I pull a value from a MSSQL field with is defined as money, how can I get it to display in a textbox with commas and NO decimals?

87000.0000 = 87,000

I can currently remove the decimals like below but is there a way to add the commas as well?

decRevenue = drMyData("Revenue")

txtRevenue.Text = decRevenue.ToString("f0")

It current shows "87000".
