>>>Hi All,
>>>
>>>I need some help with an sql stored procedure. The procedure listed here passes a parameter to the Table Name and works as it should. What I also want to be able to do is to add a WHERE clause that passes two datetime parameters to filter the results to return rows that have a date field between the datetime parameters. I cannot seem to get thw where clause to work. Any help would be appreciated.

I didn't look too close yet, but looks like there is an extra comma at the end of cmd line - not sure how did it get there.
