I have a simple query:
INSERT INTO tblIndicators (RunID, EventTS, MA1t3)
Values (65, '11/2/2012 2:25:00 AM', 1.0);
I get this error message:
Msg 8115, Level 16, State 8, Line 1
Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric.
The precision on the Decimal datatype is (8,8). So whats the problem??
decimal (8, 8)means all 8 of your significant digits are to the right of the decimal point. 1.0 is too big.
