Version - SqlServer7 : WinNT 4.0 : SP (latest)

Alter Procedure dbo.sp_createlookup
As
Create Table CityLookup (
ID int identity,
City nvarchar(50),
State nvarchar(2));

DECLARE @State_Table nvarchar(2)
Declare @sql varchar(100)

DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR
SELECT state
FROM state_list

OPEN c1

FETCH NEXT FROM c1
INTO @State_Table

WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN

set @sql = 'select distinct(City), state into CityLookup from [' + @state_Table + ']'
Exec(@sql)

FETCH NEXT FROM c1
INTO @State_Table
END

CLOSE c1
DEALLOCATE c1
