SQL Cast statement error - varchar to uniqueidentifier
Hello all,
I am trying to insert a 36 character string into a test table as shown below, but I still get the famous "Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier." Can someone point out the obvious flaw in my query:
create table test3(
id uniqueidentifier
)
declare @id2 varchar(36)
set @id2 = '9D9CB28D-1918-42DB-A7A4-C
insert into test3
(id)
values(
cast(@id2 as uniqueidentifier)
)
Thanks in advance!

You have a 'Q' last in the string, that should be an illegal char.
