I'm reading this article (thanks Naomi) for building dynamic queries from variable user input. The user might provide one search field or several:
http://blogs.lessthandot.com/index.php/DataMgmt/DBProgramming/do-you-use-column-param-or-param-is-null

In the article the author uses a built in stored procedure for executing dynamic sql select statements called sp_executesql

This stored procedure has a weird way of calling it with parameters which I assumed was a way of calling dynamic sql using parameterized variables.

However, on the MS page for this (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188001.aspx) the first warning is that "Run time-compiled Transact-SQL statements can expose applications to malicious attacks, such as SQL injection."

Can anyone shed any light here?

My goal is to create a stored procedure that dynamically creates a query based on variable user input, but does so in a parameterized way to avoid any sql injection vulnerabilities.
