| But the problem with your code is that you aren't assigning the value to the variabledeclare @i int exec sp_executesql N'select @i = count(*) from master.dbo.spt_values where type = ''C''', N'@i int output', @i output select @iseehttp://www.nigelrivett.net/sp_executeSQL.html==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
