I have SQL Server 2008 with a linked Sybase server and I am trying to execute a stored procedure on the Sybase server using OPENQUERY. If I have a stored proc that doesn’t take parameters it succeeds fine. If I have a stored proc with parameters it fails. I even tried a very basic stored proc that only took an int an that still failed. Below is the syntax I am using:

select * from 
OPENQUERY([LINKSERVER],'exec database.user.my_stored_proc ''AT'',''XXXX%'',''1111'',1')

Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
Cannot process the object “exec database.user.my_stored_proc ‘AT’,’XXXX%’,’1111′,1”. The OLE DB provider “ASEOLEDB” for linked server “LINKSERVER” indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions on that object.

As the proc will execute just fine without parameters, I don’t think it is a permission issue.

    Linked Servers and OPENQUERY, Gems to MS SQL Server…that are wolves in sheep clothing. I’ve found the following solutions to work when dealing with parameters

    1. If the SP is basically just SELECT statements, the move the same to a VIEW and just pass SQL statements via OPENQUERY.

    2. Build the OPENQUERY as a string and then use execute_sql.
