Hi,

Is it possible to use a variable for a table name in the FROM clause? I get the following error when I compile this SP.

SPL1027:E(L11), Missing/Invalid SQL statement'E(3707):Syntax error, expected something like a name between the 'From' keyword and ':'.

replace procedure sp_test_insert()
BEGIN

DECLARE tname CHAR(30);
SET tname = 'my_table';

       INSERT INTO dba.process_table (process_id,process_name)
        SELECT
         Process_ID,
         Process_Name
         From :tname
        Where process_date = DATE;
END;

Appreciate any help with this.

Thanks,

girija
