Question

I have a stored procedure say @Create_Dummy1 which is being passed a variable. This is declared as @Dummy_Variable1 in this stored procedure.

Next I need to call another stored procedure @Create_Dummy2 from @Create_Dummy1. I need to pass @Dummy_Variable1 in the exec statement.

But if I try to do this the string @Dummy_Variable1 is only being passed instead of the value it holds.

Answer 1

I’m executing procedures inside other procedures like this:

DECLARE @childResult int, @loaErrorCode int, @loaErrorMessage varchar(255) 
EXEC @childResult = [dbo].[proc_sub_getSomething] @schemes_id = @foo_schemes_i, @errorCode = @loaErrorCode OUTPUT , @errorMessage = @loaErrorMessage OUTPUT

Should it still not work you should edit your question to show your exact code.
