XML FeedsMicrosoft has made available two pdf files with a nice chart of all the data type conversions. It is pretty much the chart that belongs to the topic CAST and CONVERT (Transact-SQL). Now you have a way of printing a nice looking chart so that you can always reference this. I think this is a great idea, Microsoft should make more of these.
The two files are SQL Server Data Type Conversion Chart.pdf which is 1.7 MB, and SQL Server Data Type Conversion Chart_grayscale.pdf which is 1.6 MB
Here is a small image of what the color one looks like
The files can be downloaded here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35834
Denis has been working with SQL Server since version 6.5. Although he worked as an ASP/JSP/ColdFusion developer before the dot com bust, he has been working exclusively as a database developer/architect since 2002. In addition to English, Denis is also fluent in Croatian and Dutch, but he can curse in many other languages and dialects (just ask the SQL optimizer) He lives in Princeton, NJ with his wife and three kids.
I'm so happy they made this a PDF - finally!
