SQL Server Error Message: Syntax error converting the varchar value to a column of data type int
Error Message:
Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Syntax error converting the varchar value to a column of data type int.
Causes:
There are many ways this error may be encountered but the common reason is that you are trying to convert, either implicitly or explicitly, a varchar value to an int data type and the varchar value cannot be converted to an int data type. You may have a varchar column that may have integer values on most records but where some have non-integer values.
One other common reason why this is encountered is when creating a dynamic SQL statement and the query involves combining a varchar variable with an integer variable.

“Xynomix investigated the performance bottlenecks that we were experiencing after updating our data warehouse application. After investigating the system, Xynomix concluded that the database server’s cache-hit rates and available memory were both low, which was impacting negatively on performance. The technician rectified this and we are now very happy with the function of the application.”
