Dear All,
I would like to execute a DDL statement(create table) in a trigger. The DDL statement is stored as a field in another table. I have read that sql statement into a variable of type varchar. How do I execute that sql statement.
Thanks in advance
Please Note Create Statement can not be included inside Trigger

I can't recall whether there will be a problem if you create through the procedure but I will give you the syntax as you requested. It is very simple
General
CREATE TABLE table_name
( field1 Integer/Varchar/Text Size Nul/Not null
....
.....
)
To be specific
CREATE TABLE member
(member_no char 10 NOT NULL,
lastname char 20 NOT NULL,
)
Please read Books On line which comes along with SQL Server CD. Mostly it need bit of play in SQL Server. I am also learnt most by playing on sql server. It is mearly learning to drive the car. More you drive more expert you be. Any way My recommended books are below
ISBN 1-57231-826-0 SQL Server 7.0 Database Implementation Self Peaced Training.

If you want to know how to execute a statement which is stored inside a variable then you can use Execute command.
For example :-
Exec(@myvar)
You would need to do this from inside the Stored Proc instead of a trigger.
