SQL-server 2016, SQL server management studio (SSMS). Creating external tables with transact-SQL and Polybase. How can we read decimals with a decimal mark, comma instead of dot?
When using float and decimal it fails and throws an error. When using money data type it succeeds, but misread decimals and integers are returned instead.
Revised the file format standard clause, no option to configure such a thing. Collation already set for my region.
Sample data:
2017;4;2017;601PPP;183,63;0 2017;4;2017;601PPP;183,63;0 2017;4;2017;601PPP;183,63;1.000,55 2017;4;2017;601PPP;183,63;2,5 2017;4;2017;601PPP;183,63;7,5 2017;4;2017;601PPP;405,28;17,5
Example of a create table that would fail to read the sample data:
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE [dbo].[STG_Table] ( field1 smallint NULL ,field2 tinyint NULL ,field3 smallint NULL ,fieldn_2 varchar(10) NULL ,fieldn_1 money NULL ,fieldn float NULL ) WITH (LOCATION='/STG_Table/', DATA_SOURCE = AzureDataSource, FILE_FORMAT = FileFormat );
Thanks in advance!!
