Ok... this is all going the wrong way. NEVER NEVER NEVER grant privs to any user or application login to execute xp_CmdShell directly! NEVER! If they need to do something that requires the use of xp_CmdShell, then only allow them to use a very well controlled, very well written stored procedure and don't forget that there IS such a thing as DOS INJECTION!

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
