I want to conver float number type to local money format but SQL SERVER not accept my convert function.

Here My Converting solution:

SQL

FORMAT(360.3678,'c','tr-TR')

So output should like this:

36.036,78

But its getting error with this:

SQL

'FORMAT' is not  recognized built-in function name.

How can I solve this issue?

FORMAT[^] is only supported in SQL Server 2012 or newer.

~~No, Tomas, you're wrong. Format is known for MS SQL Server 2008 and up.~~
Sorry, i'm wrong ;)

Solution 1

FORMAT function is available from version 2012 onwards. In earlier versions, use this

convert(money,round(360.3678,2)) or cast(360.3678 as money)

Solution 2

As Tomas Takac[^] mentioned, Format function is supported in SQL Server 2012 and newer.

The only way to achieve that, is to write custom function[^] which return a text formated the way you want.

See also: CAST and CONVERT[^] and STRING functions[^]

Try!
