Hey!

I need to dynamically create an SQL statement within a MySQL 5.0.20
stored procedure.

-- PSEUDO CODE
create procedure DynSQLTest
(
in sTable varchar(45)
)
begin
declare sSQL varchar(45);

select Concat('select * from ',sTable,' where ...) into sSQL;

EXECUTESQL(sSQL);
end;

Is there a possibility to construct the SQL in a varchar and then
execute it? I spent some time googling but did not find anything.

Thank you for any !

Fred

See here:

You can do this in stored procedures. See example in this article:
