| I have a table which has a ntext type column. In that column I have some sql code that I want to run. I want to query this table, get this columns value and pass it to sp_executesql. How can I do this? I can't select it into a variable because you can't create ntext type variables. I can't use exec and varchar because the query is longer then 8000 characters. Any ideas? |

| You can create a nvarchar(max) variable - but doesn't help because xp_cmdshell is limited to nvarchar(4000)Write it to a file and use sqlcmd?Sorry - misread. You're using sp_executesql which will take a nvarchar(max).==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
