| Hello,I am trying to make a stored proc that will tell me if there are any rows in a table. The table name is a variable that I get at the start of the proc it is not sent in. What I am looking for in the table is sent into the stored proc.here is what i have so far but it does not work, i can not save it. It does not seem to allow me to use the if exists with variables. if exists (SELECT * FROM + @TableName + WHERE + @ColumnName + = + @SearchStr2)print 'got here ' +@TableName + ' '+ @ColumnName ENDThanks for any help |

| You're right - it won't. Are you looking for a row count for the given table/search criteria? |
