I want to assign value to a text variable, How can I do this?
e.g.,

declare @select text, @sql text

SELECT @select=stuff(@select, charindex(' FROM ', @select)+1, 0, ', ' + @sql + ' ')

You can't have text variable types in SQL Server.

You can have text parameters though. Like this:
create procedure test1
@mytextvar text
as
select @mytextvar

If you got creative, I'm sure you could find a way to work around not being able to assign it within a stored procedure.
