Has anyone been able to get around this, yet.
I have tried:
let SQLStoredProc = () => SQL.database("Server","Database",[Query="EXEC dbo.RPT_Report"])
in SQLStoredProc
Result - Details: "Microsoft SQL: Incorrect syntax near '='."
Tried:
let SQLStoredProc = () => SQL.database("Server","Database",[Query="EXEC [dbo].[RPT_FlashReport]"])
in SQLStoredProc
Result - Details: "Microsoft SQL: Incorrect syntax near '='. Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '])
in SQLStoredProc'."
Tried:
DECLARE @sqlCommand varchar(1000)
SET @sqlCommand = 'dbo.Testproc'
EXEC (@sqlCommand)
This one gets past the initial load and will bring me into query editor, but when I try to apply and close the result below occurs.
Result - Microsoft SQL: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'. Incorrect syntax near ')'.
