Hey,

by running this code the variable @db_name will not be read in the select to set @diff


declare @diff nvarchar(10)
declare @db_name nvarchar(120)

set @db_name ='Olaf'

select @diff  = datediff(day,max(datum),getdate()) from  @db_name.dbo.xxaprot
insert into test_or.dbo.DBAlter values(@db_name,@diff)

What´s wrong? Or is there a way to do it otherway?

Thanks
Olaf
