Using "AS" in Stored Procedure.

[Henry Craven]

I have a Union Query that works as a View, and is the Source for an MS
Access
ADP Report. However, I need to pass in some variable parameters but
because it
uses "as" it won't work.

Is there any way to delimit/work around the "As" or some way to pass in
the parameters ?

I can use UDF in a View, but can't see how to pass in the values when
calling the View

Some of the SQL Statement follows.

TIA

Thanks but passing the params to the SP is not a Problem.

SPs balk at the

.... AS StaffName,
0 AS ListItems,
0 AS ListComm,

etc...

In the View, which will accept a UDF, I can't / don't know how to
call it with a Var input param in the UDF.

I don't get it, Henry, what's the problem with SPs and 'AS'? There's an SP
in the 'NorthwindCS' sample database that uses that syntax, and I tested
adding a "0 As MyAlias" - see below. The SP runs without any problem. What
problem are you experiencing?

SELECT dbo.Employees.Country, dbo.Employees.LastName,
dbo.Employees.FirstName, dbo.Orders.ShippedDate, dbo.Orders.OrderID,
dbo.[Order Subtotals].Subtotal AS SaleAmount, 0 AS
MyAlias
FROM dbo.Employees INNER JOIN
dbo.Orders INNER JOIN
dbo.[Order Subtotals] ON dbo.Orders.OrderID =
dbo.[Order Subtotals].OrderID ON dbo.Employees.EmployeeID =
dbo.Orders.EmployeeID
WHERE (dbo.Orders.ShippedDate BETWEEN @Beginning_Date AND @Ending_Date)

Cold light of morn, and given that you say it works I pasted
the SQL statement into a new SP, and lo and behold the
syntax check passes OK.

Have no idea why I was getting all the "AS" errors last night
( same Copy and Paste... ) so tanks for the Time Brendan
and Alejandro and sorry for the waste of bandwidth folks.

Saves me passing in one seriously ugly SQL string.
