Derek,

try the code below:

CREATE Procedure ApplicationUserSelect1 @lnParam1 int, @lcTableName varchar(250)
AS
begin
declare @lcsqlstmt varchar(500)

select @lcsqlstmt = "select a.* from " + @lcTableName + " a where a.User_ID = " + ltrim(str(@lnParam1, 10, 0))
execute(@lcsqlstmt)
end

Note I have change the paramter @lcTableName to use varchar(250) instead of char. Note that char only accept 1 character.

Hope this help.




I need to be able to dynamically reference a table name within an SQL stored procedure. For example:

CREATE Procedure ApplicationUserSelect1 @lnParam1 int, @lcTableName char
AS
set @lcTableName = 'V1System.dbo.ApplicationUser'
select a.* from #lcTableName a where a.User_ID = @lnParam1
GO

Firstly, I know this code doesn't work, this is purely for an example.

I'd like to be able to pass the Database.Table name into the procedure, as per the variable lcTableName, so that I can change the database location of the table from VFP (by simply passing it in to the SQL procedure).

Any ideas?

Regards

Derek
