Is there any way to send functions as parameters to stored procedures?

create procedure stp_dummy 
@input nvarchar(255)
as select @input

exec stp_dummy a_function_that_returns_string('abracadabra')

(Of course that I know that the function can be called previously but I would like to know if the direct solution is available.)

    I know this isn’t the answer you’re looking for, but the only way to do this is to declare a local variable, assign the function value to this, and use this as your parameter value:

    DECLARE @input nvarchar(255)
SET @input = a_function_that_returns_string('abracadabra')
EXEC stp_dummy @input=@input

    With SQL Server 2008, this can be done in 2 lines:

    DECLARE @input nvarchar(255) = a_function_that_returns_string('abracadabra')
EXEC stp_dummy @input=@input
