absolutely... except, in your case, you'd need the syntax:

create procedure test
@tablename nvarchar(255),
@columname nvarchar(255)
AS

EXEC ('select ' + @columname + 'from ' + @tablename)


That'll do it for ya.

Is there a way to use tsql variables as tablenames and columnames in stored
procedures using SQL Server 7? i.e.:

create procedure test
@tablename nvarchar(255),
@columname nvarchar(255)
as
select @columnname from @tablename

(which doesn't work) etc?
