The conversion of the varchar value overflowed an int column

Question

For some value of @nReservationID:

SELECT @phoneNumber=
  CASE 
    WHEN  ISNULL(rdg2.nPhoneNumber  ,0) = 0 THEN ISNULL(rdg2.nMobileNumber, 0)
    ELSE ISNULL(rdg2.nPhoneNumber  ,0)
  END 
from tblReservation_Details_Guest  rdg2 
where nReservationID=@nReservationID

Why do I get this error?

Msg 248, Level 16, State 1, Procedure USP_CRE_WEB_MEMBER_AUTOGENERATEDECV, Line 136 The conversion of the varchar value '08041159620' overflowed an int column.

Answer 1

Declare @phoneNumber int

select @phoneNumber=Isnull('08041159620',0);

Give error :

The conversion of the varchar value '8041159620' overflowed an int column.: select cast('8041159620' as int)

AS

Declare @phoneNumber bigint

Answer 2

Thanks Ravi and other users .... Nevertheless I have got the solution

SELECT @phoneNumber=
CASE 
  WHEN  ISNULL(rdg2.nPhoneNumber  ,'0') in ('0','-',NULL)
THEN ISNULL(rdg2.nMobileNumber, '0') 
  WHEN ISNULL(rdg2.nMobileNumber, '0')  in ('0','-',NULL)
THEN '0'
  ELSE ISNULL(rdg2.nPhoneNumber  ,'0')
END 
FROM tblReservation_Details_Guest  rdg2 
WHERE nReservationID=@nReservationID

Just need to put '0' instead of 0

Answer 3

Just make rdg2.nPhoneNumber varchar everywhere instead of int !
