i'm trying to build up the following dynamically
EXEC @.result =master..xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\test\D0004' , no_output
print @.result
so far i have got this..
set @.strsql = 'exec master..xp_cmdshell '+"'"+' dir c:\test\'+@.foldername +
+"'"+' , no_output'
exec(strsql)
this work fine to execute, but i cannot find anyway of returning the
success/failure into the variable @.result
Please helpYou can use sp_executesql with an output parameter for this...
declare @.strsql nvarchar(200)
declare @.result int
set @.strsql = 'exec @.result = master..xp_cmdshell '+"'"+' dir
c:\test\'+@.foldername +
+"'"+' , no_output'
exec sp_executesql @.strsql, '@.Result int OUTPUT', @.Result OUTPUT
print @.result

literal:
exec sp_executesql @.strsql, N'@.Result int OUTPUT', @.Result OUTPUT
That tells SQL Server that the string is Unicode.
