Hi,

I was just wondering if anybody could help me out with the correct syntax to run a stored procedure from one server to create a table on a different server. The problem I'm having is that the server, database name and table name are going to vary everytime so I'm passing variables through.

DECLARE @TableName AS varchar(100)
SET @TableName = Map_'+LTRIM(RTRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@PortNum, ' ',''),'+',''),',',''),'&','')))

CREATE TABLE @ServerName.@DBName.@TableName
	(
	ID VARCHAR(10) NULL,
	COUNTRY VARCHAR(2) NULL,
	CRESTA VARCHAR(5) NULL,
	TSIUSD FLOAT NULL,
	TSI FLOAT NULL,
	MrkTSI FLOAT NULL,
	Mshare FLOAT NULL
	)


Is this syntax correct?

Thanks in advance

No it isn't.

You need dynamic sql for that.
If you don't know about dynamic sql then you have to learn.

In the first step you should work against the goal to create a table on the same server.

In the next step you can work against the goal to create a table on another server.
For this it is needed to have a linked server (you know I already told you that in your old thread)
If you don't know about linked server then you have to learn.

No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
