    <p>I have a confusing error that I can not understand on SQL Server 2008 R2. </p> <p>But when I try the same request on a local server (SQL Server 2008 R2 also) everything works fine.</p> <p>So here is the request raising the problem:</p> <pre><code>select cast(cast(1.260 as numeric(13,3)) as numeric(10,2)) </code></pre> <p>I also added the result of some queries indicating the environment of each server:</p> <p><strong>On the local server:</strong></p> <pre><code>--------------------------------------- 1.26 (1 row(s) affected) Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1617.0 (X64) Apr 22 2011 19:23:43 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 &lt;X64&gt; (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) ARITHABORT --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 (1 row(s) affected) ARITHIGNORE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NULL (1 row(s) affected) ANSI_WARNINGS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 (1 row(s) affected) </code></pre> <p><strong>On the remote server:</strong></p> <blockquote> <p>Msg 8115, Level 16, State 7, Line 1<br> Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric.</p> </blockquote> <pre><code>Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1) - 10.50.2500.0 (X64) Jun 17 2011 00:54:03 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.0 &lt;X64&gt; (Build 6002: Service Pack 2) (Hypervisor) (1 row(s) affected) ARITHABORT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 (1 row(s) affected) ARITHIGNORE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NULL (1 row(s) affected) ANSI_WARNINGS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 (1 row(s) affected) </code></pre> <p>My question is how can I reproduce the problem that is occuring on the remote server. As you can see, the parameters ARITH... and ANSI_.. are the same on both servers. Is there any configuration on that kind of errors on the SQL Server?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
