I have written a query which has around 60 lines of Code.
And this 60 line of code must be executed agianst around 60 table that means everytime only tableName will be changed.
Now my query is should i write 60*60=3600 lines of code or should i build a dynamic SQL with while loop and where i pass the table names.
Which one is preferable as per performance and other issues?
TIA.

This is impossible to answer without knowing some more details. Can you post some examples of what you need to do?

Is it a one time job?
You can use a dynamic sql. Make sure you read this fully www.sommarskog.se/dynamic_sql.html
