In Power Query Editor, the text string is: 123547126811
Why is the text string in SQL Server: 123547126811.0?
R Script:
library(RODBC)
conn <- odbcDriverConnect("driver={SQL Server}; server=localhost;Database=**;uid=uid;pwd=password")
odbcClearError(conn)
sql="Delete T From
(Select Row_Number() Over(Partition By cust_id order By cust_id) As RowNumber,* From tmp)T
Where T.RowNumber > 1"
sqlSave(conn, dataset, tablename="tmp",rownames=FALSE, safer=FALSE, append=TRUE,fast=TRUE)
sqlQuery(conn,sql) #delete duplicate data.
close(conn)
because The PowerQuery M code run twice,so run delete duplicate sql in R Script.
Solved! Go to Solution.
using format function is ok:
dataset$cust_id <- format(dataset$cust_id)
using format function is ok:
dataset$cust_id <- format(dataset$cust_id)
Hi @luojiandan_bi ,
Check whether the data type has been changed automatically in power query,if so,close it.
Check the reference below:
