Formatting Numbers by padding with leading zeros in SQL Server
Change the number 6 to whatever your total length needs to be:
SELECT REPLICATE('0',6-LEN(EmployeeId)) + EmployeeId
If the column is an INT, you can use RTRIM to implicitly convert it to a VARCHAR
SELECT REPLICATE('0',6-LEN(RTRIM(EmployeeId))) + RTRIM(EmployeeId)
And the code to remove these 0s and get back the 'real' number:
SELECT RIGHT(EmployeeId,(LEN(EmployeeId) - PATINDEX('%[^0]%',EmployeeId)) + 1)
Concatenation Breaks Numbers with Padded Zeros in SQL Server
I think this does what you want:
convert(varchar(6), a.[Fiscal Year] * 100 + a.[Fiscal Month])
Query to pad left of a field with 0's
Assuming that MuNumber is VARCHAR simply use RIGHT
SELECT RIGHT('00000' + MuNumber, 5)
FROM Mytable
Otherwise you need to convert it first
SELECT RIGHT('00000' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), MuNumber), 5)
FROM Mytable
And in general you can use this pattern:
DECLARE @num INT = 10;
SELECT RIGHT(REPLICATE('0', @num) + CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), MuNumber), @num)
FROM Mytable
How to add zero in front of numeric value in T-SQL 2005 or 2008?
You have to convert it to a varchar
and use right
.
select right(replicate('0', 10) + convert(varchar(10), YourNumberColumn), 10)
Left fill variable with zeros in FORMATMESSAGE
Try %0{# of digits}i
(%02i
) like so:
Declare @i int = 2
PRINT FORMATMESSAGE('La La La: %02i', @i)
-- OUTPUT: 'La La La: 02'
Your string:
PRINT FORMATMESSAGE('Run time #%02i: From %s to %s', @i, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), @from_date, 101), CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), @to_date, 101))
SQL Server ID Starting with Zero's
This is no datatype that will pad leading 0s. That type of thing must be done with a character datatype. But you can accomplish this easily.
Also please be sure to always specify the length of varchar data. https://sqlblog.org/2009/10/09/bad-habits-to-kick-declaring-varchar-without-length
create table MCE_IDTest_av(
invoice_id_num int not null Identity(100076,1) primary key,
invoice_id as ('MCE' + right('00000000' + CONVERT(varchar(10), invoice_id_num), 7)),
);
