    pass linked serverName to a cursor issue...

    Need to loop through a Cursor to linked server:
    -----------------------------------------------
    Declare Cursor_Loop_serverName Cursor for
    select cast(name as varchar(30)) name, cast(dbID as varchar(5)) dbID,
    cast(crdate as varchar(25)) crdate
    from ServerName_A.master.dbo.sysdatabases

    ***How could I pass @serverName to change the from to
    from @RemoteServer.master.dbo.sysdatabases?
    I have tried dynamic sql, it did not work after the Declare Cursor for...

    thanks for the help
    David

    declare cur_ForEachServer CURSOR FOR
    SELECT DISTINCT instancename FROM [LinkedServerName].[Dbname].SchemaName.TableName
    WHERE instancename IN(select srvname from sys.sysservers )

    OPEN cur_ForEachServer

    FETCH NEXT FROM cur_ForEachServer INTO @instance
