Hi
I'm grateful for any light you can shed on this!!
I've to admit, it's an unusual design but I've multiple contact tables named
e.g. i2b_ash_contact or i2b_ted_contact .
'i2b_' and '_contact' are static but the middle part is dynamic.
Storing all contacts in one table with an identifier of e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'
for each record is not possible.
Returning the value from the dynamic Query is no problem but I don't know
how to assign it to a variable.
When I try doing this it either runs into problems with evaluating the
variables or doesn't retuen anything at all e.g. if I say at the end 'Print
@AddressID'. The variable remains empty.
How can I do something like:
DECLARE
@AddressID int,
@ProgClient (varchar(10),
@Table varchar(10)
Note: @Prog is a string e.g. 'ash' or 'ted'
SET @Table = 'i2b_ + @ProgClient + '_contact
SET @AddressID = (SELECT AddressID FROM @Table WHERE ContactID = @ContactID) 2 29762
DECLARE
@AddressID int,
@ProgClient (varchar(10),
@Table varchar(10)
,@sql nvarchar(1000)
SET @Table = 'i2b_' + @ProgClient + '_contact'
SET @sql='SET @AddressID = (SELECT AddressID FROM '+@Table+' WHERE ContactID
= @ContactID)'
exec sp_executesql @sql,N'@Contact ID int, @AddressID int
output',@Contac tID,@AddressID output
select @AddressID

Thanks Bob! That does the trick!!
Have a nice day!!!

news:09******** *************** *****@phx.gbl.. . Provided you are passing in the @ContractID somewhere else outside your example, your select statement only returns one record, and the user has at least dbdatareader access to table, I think this should do the trick.
I'm not sure if it's the most efficient design, but it should work:
DECLARE @SQL varchar(1000), @AddressID int, @ProgClient varchar(10), @Table varchar(100)
SET @Table = 'i2b_' + @ProgClient + '_contact'
SET @SQL = 'SELECT AddressID FROM ' + @Table + ' WHERE ContactID = ' + CONVERT(varchar , @ContactID)
CREATE TABLE #TmpAddressID (AddressID int)
INSERT INTO #TmpAddressID EXEC(@SQL)
SET @AddressID = (SELECT AddressID FROM #TmpAddressID)
PRINT @AddressID
--Not really needed, but good clean up DROP TABLE #TmpAddressID

Is it possible to have part of a table name used in a CREATE statement
contained in a variable? Here's what I'd like to do, although
obviously the syntax of this isn't quite right or I wouldn't be here
asking:
DECLARE @TblPrefix char (3)
SET @TblPrefix = 'tst'
CREATE TABLE @TblPrefix + TestTable (col1 int)
The point there is to have a table named tstTestTable

Surely that means that if I misspell a variable name, my program will

If you don't declare variables, you can inadvertently re-use an
variable used in an enclosing context when you don't intend to, or

Hi,
I'm now working with DB2, and I can't find out how to execute the
contents of a string Statement, without using a Java/... procedure,
only using SQL statements.
I know that some SQBDs such as SQL Server allows it as the exemple
bellow shows :
EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM Test'
Is there any way to do so with DB2 ?

Is there anyway I can query on a table that is present within another
variable?
This is the situation: I get a table name from a column 'TBNAME' from
the catalog table SYSCOLUMNS and I would like run a query on the table
present in the 'TBNAME'.
I've looked into reference manuals & searched this group and couldn't
find answer to this.
I appreciate if anyone can tell me if this can be done by a SQL query.
Thanks,

I am writing a program that generates source code. See a snippet
below. My question is about the use of that growing 'code' variable.
Is it efficient? Is is recommended for this case?
The code generated can grow a lot. Perhaps I should allocate a large
max size in advance?
TIA,

Please help. I'm stumped.
I need to create a dynamic variable in a procedure that will be used
to update a variable of the same name in a table. i.e. the name in
tblAnalysisScores are WEAQScore0, WEAQScore1,WEAQScore5, MissingWEAQ0,
MissingWEAQ1, MissingWEAQ5
The 0, 1, 5 are the @Interval. I am using a cursor to loop through the
table. Each row in the table is the data for one person at a given
timepoint (0,1,5).
