AS2K5. Conversion Bool -> int makes true -> (-1).

AS2K5 does convertion from bool to int another way as AS2K did it.

I this a bug or by design?

Is this during processing? If yes, then you can always cast the column to the type you want in the DSV...

Thanks,

Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric for View

Hi,
When I do
Select * From V_TABLE Where Column = 1
, I get arithmetic exception. Column type is int.
When I do
Select * From V_TABLE Where Column = 10
, I get no arithmetic exception at all.
When I do
Select * From TABLE Where Column = 1
, I get no arithmetic exception at all.
So far I undestood that I get exceptions for view only and only if
expression in Where is 1. Any ideas why it happens?
SQL server is MS SQL server 2005.Sergey
What if you run SELECT * FROM V_TABLE Where Column = '1', do you still get
error?

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int.

I've got this error message while generate the output with ASP:

"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005)
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int."

it indicate that the error is related to this line:
"rc1.Movenext"

where rc1 is set as objconn.Execute(sql).

Not all outputs result like this, it happens when it has many relationships with other records, especially with those records which also have many relationships with other records.

Can anyone suggest a solution?
I've tried to increase the size of the database file, but it doesn't work.could you perhaps show the query that caused the error?|||Here is the query:

CREATE procedure rp_co_relatedcompanies @.companyregistrationno varchar(20)
as
set nocount on
--used for related companies details

select a.companypersonid,a.personname,a.personaddress1,a. personaddress2,a.personcity,a.personstate,a.person country,
a.personzip,a.personphone,a.personfax,a.personemai l,a.personuniqueid,b.principalbusiness,b.secondryb usiness,
c.relationwithcompany,c.numberofshares, c.classofsharesheld , cast(d.noofissuedshares as int) 'noofissuedshares',
'percentageofsharehold' = case when c.numberofshares =0 then 0 else c.numberofshares/d.noofissuedshares*100 end, c.otherremarks
from companyperson a
left join companystructure d on a.personuniqueid=d.companyregistrationno
left outer join operationsandactivity b on a.personuniqueid = b.companyregistrationno
left outer join relationshipcompanyperson c on a.companypersonid = c.companypersonid
where c.companyregistrationno = @.companyregistrationno and c.relationshipwith = 2
and a.deletionflag=0 order by a.personname
set nocount off
GO|||can you see anything in that query where there might be a problem "converting expression to data type int"

the immediate suspect is cast(d.noofissuedshares as int)

another suspect is c.numberofshares/d.noofissuedshares*100

check those and let us know|||Table DDL would help a lot. Heck, I was betting on the c.companyregistrationno being an INT and the @.companyregistrationno failing the implicit Cast...

Anybody want to start a pool on this? Or another option (not as much fun, but the problem would get solved a lot faster) would be for yllas to post the DDL for all of the tables in this query!

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int.

Hello, I'm using SQL Server 7.0 (SP2) for my distributor and many subscribers. It seems that when I replicate using my subscribers, some of them hit the error "Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int". However, I realised that after waiting for a while before replicating now, it seems okay. Anybody can advice how I can prevent this from happening? Thanks!Refer to this KBA (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q307533&gssnb=1) to fix the issue.

maybe you should consider adding year instead of seconds on your date...that's a lot of seconds|||I would take the number of seconds, divide it out;

There are 31536000 Seconds in a year so store that value in a variable as 1 or 2, ect depending upon how many years you have.

Subtract 31536000 * (the value stored from above) from your starting value to get the remaining time. Then do the same for days, then minutes, then seconds.

Do not do this for months as each month has varying number of days.

This way you will date add to Year, Days, Minutes, Seconds.

This will be more manageable.

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int when using Fill from a Sq

I thought I'd post this quick problem and answer, as I couldn't find the answer when searching for it.

I tried to call a stored procedure on SQL Server 2000 using the System.Data.SqlClient objects, and was not expecting any unusual issues. However when I came to call the Fill method I received the error "Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int."

My first checks were the obvious ones of verifying that I'd provided all the correct datatypes and had no unexpected null values, but I found nothing out of order. The problem turns out to be a difference on the maximum values for integers between C# and SQL Server 2000. Previously having hit issues with SQL Server integers requiring Long Integer types in VB6, I was aware that these are 32-bit integers, so I was passing in Int32 variables. The problem was that Int32.MaxValue is not a valid integer for SQL Server. Seeing as I was providing an abitrary upper value for records-per-page (to fetch all in one page), I was simply able to change this to Int16.MaxValue and will hit no further problems as this is also well beyond any expected range for this parameter.

If anyone can name off the top of their heads what value should be provided as a maximum integer for SQL Server 2000, this might be a useful addition, but otherwise I hope this spares others some hunting if they also experience this problem.

Hi,

Please check in the database to see if there is any calculation to be done in your DataSet.

Sometimes, there might be expression columns that add value to this column which might make the exception.

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int

Under certain circumstances I am getting the following error

"Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int"

when running the following code:

SELECT Count(*), Sum(GrossWinAmount)
FROM LGSLog
WHERE
(CurrentDate >= '9/1/2004 8:00:00 AM') And (CurrentDate <= '9/27/2004 7:59:59 AM')

If I remove the "Sum(GrossWinAmount)" from the select, it works fine. I therefore believe that Sum is causing the error. Is there a version of Sum that works with larger variables, such as a BigInt? If not, is there some way to do the equivalent using larger numbers? I need to allow for the possibility of obtaining one month's summary, and sometimes the summary value is apparently too large for Sum to handle.My first suggestion would be:SELECT Count(*), Sum(Cast(GrossWinAmount AS MONEY))
FROM LGSLog
WHERE CurrentDate >= '9/1/2004 8:00:00 AM'
And CurrentDate <= '9/27/2004 7:59:59 AM'-PatP|||I don't think that would accomplish anything in this case since floating point and monitary values such as this are stored in the database, for the most part, as an SQL int type (multiplied by 100 and rounded in the program(s) before being written... don't ask why... it was being done this way before I started working on the system).|||Did you try it, or are you just guessing that it won't work?

-PatP|||Yep. I just tried changing the query as follows (I changed the date range to only include a week's worth of data... in the program, these are actually datetime variables)...
:
declare @.Totals TABLE
(
GameCount int default 0,
Win int default 0,
Adj int default 0,
Bet int default 0
)
declare @.Count int
INSERT INTO @.Totals
SELECT Count(*) As GameCount, Sum(CAST(l.GrossWinAmount AS MONEY)) As Win, Sum(CAST(l.AdjustedWinAmount AS MONEY)) As Adj, Sum(CAST(l.TotalBetAmount AS MONEY)) As Bet
FROM LGSLog l
WHERE (CurrentDate >= '9/20/2004 8:00:00 AM') And (CurrentDate <= '9/28/2004 7:59:59 AM')
GROUP BY l.MasterID
ORDER BY l.MasterID
SELECT @.Count=COUNT(*) FROM @.Totals
if (@.Count = 0)
Begin /* make sure something valid is returned if nothing found */
INSERT INTO @.Totals VALUES (0, 0, 0, 0)
End
SELECT * FROM @.Totals
:
and got the following error...
:
There is insufficient result space to convert a money value to int.
The statement has been terminated.
:
Which suggests to me that Sum is still wanting to RETURN an int size value, which is what I thought. The theory is that it is not the size of what is being passed into Sum(), but the fact that Sum() is trying to return a value that is too big because it wants to return a value the size of an int!|||How about the DDL for LGSLog

And how many rows are in the result set?

What are the MIN and MAX Values for those columns?

What is the average wind-speed velocity of a sparrow?|||Could it be that the result went outsideof the alloweable boundaries (922337203685477.5807 or -922337203685477.5808)?|||I think I finally got it to work. It took a hybrid of your original suggestion. I cast the sum results to money values / 100 (floats gave me too imprecise a number). I also changed the result set data fields to money values. Then, in the program, I multiplied by 100 and rounded and then converted to long integer (the program already expcected the values as a fixed point type stored in a long... fixed 2 places left of the right most digit... it was easier this way than to make major mods throughout program). I just hope this does not introduce rounding errors, which was the main reason for storing as fixed point values converted to integers in the first place.

This technique seemed to work getting data as far back as one month (no overflow/conversion errors).

declare @.Totals TABLE
(
GameCount int default 0,
Win money default 0,
Adj money default 0,
Bet money default 0
)
declare @.Count int
INSERT INTO @.Totals
SELECT Count(*) As GameCount, Sum(CAST(l.GrossWinAmount AS money) / 100) As Win,
Sum(CAST(l.AdjustedWinAmount AS money) / 100) As Adj, Sum(CAST(l.TotalBetAmount AS money) / 100) As Bet
FROM LGSLog l
WHERE (CurrentDate >= '9/01/2004 8:00:00 AM') And (CurrentDate <= '9/28/2004 7:59:59 AM')
GROUP BY l.MasterID
ORDER BY l.MasterID
SELECT @.Count=COUNT(*) FROM @.Totals
if (@.Count = 0)
Begin
INSERT INTO @.Totals VALUES (0, 0, 0, 0)
End
SELECT * FROM @.Totals

The grouping broke the results into anywhere from a couple of rows to over 25, depending on how far back I wanted to go. This also helped to reduce the size of the value being summed at the server. If the number got too big in the program, I could just use a larger integer size, such as an int32 or int64 in the program, which is not an option I had at the server.|||Instead of casting to MONEY and doing the divide by 100 then multiplying the sum by 100, just cast the column to BIGINT which is an int64 equivalent.

I'm still having trouble getting my head around the idea that you overflowed a MONEY... MONEY is big enough to express the US national debt in Argentine Pesos!

-PatP|||I don't think it actually "OVERFLOWED" the money type. I think it had no problem working with money. I think what was happening is that when "Sum" RETURNED the sum value, SQL tried to convert the "money" value to an "int" type, overflowing the "int" type during the conversion. This is why I think that the fields in the result set had to go from the integerial type to a money. I think I tried converting the value being passed into Sum, and also tried storing the result into a bigint, but never both at the same time. It always resulted in a conversion to an integer at some point... going in or coming out of Sum.

Apparently, if you pass an int type into Sum, it is going to return an int, which is what I was doing originally. If you pass in a money, it will sum internally as a money type and return a money type. But if the receiver variable is an int, it will downcast to an int, overflowing the resulting value. If you store the result into a money type, then it is going straight from a money to a money... no downcast necessary.|||For what it is worth, MONEY actually stores as an 8 byte signed integer, with implicit scaling by 1e4 (basically four digits after the decimal place). If your application is dealing with ODBC data directly like a C++ program would, you'd see the result come back as a long int that needed to be divided by 10000 (or in your case only 100).

Arithmetic Overflow error

Can someone help me with this error:

I need to change the datatype of a column from int to tinyint.

I did this :

ALTER TABLE EmailTracking ALTER COLUMN URLID tinyint

and got this error:

Msg 220, Level 16, State 2, Line 1

Arithmetic overflow error for data type tinyint, value = 74860.

The statement has been terminated.

how do i fix this?

thanks

Rookie, perhaps you could try examining the maximum value on the data. Tinyint is only up to 255. If the maximum of your data is more than 255, perhaps you would consider smallint instead, which is up to 32,000. Int on the other hand, is up to 2 billion.
Also, please check for negative values. Tinyint does not allow negative values, but smallint and int do.
