I have a small stored procedure below.
I am taking the table name as an input parameter to the stored procedure so that I'm planning to insert the data into the temp table and display the same. This is just a tiny code block of my project stored procedure.
When I am compiling the below, it is considering the parameter in the select statement as a table variable and throwing the error as:
Must declare the table variable "@TableName".
SQL:
CREATE PROCEDURE xyz @TableName Varchar(50)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT TOP 10 * INTO #Temp_Table_One
FROM @TableName
SELECT * FROM #Temp_Table_One
END
CREATE PROCEDURE xyz
@TableName NVARCHAR(128)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @Sql NVARCHAR(MAX);
SET @Sql = N'SELECT TOP 10 * INTO #Temp_Table_One
FROM ' + QUOTENAME(@TableName)
+ N' SELECT * FROM #Temp_Table_One '
EXECUTE sp_executesql @Sql
END
