  (SQL 2000 SP1)

  Basically I have been asked to find a way to create a new stored procedure in a different database.

  I have got as far as creating a stored procedure from a stored procedure using the following code.

  CREATE procedure b as

  declare @SQLString nvarchar(500)

  set @SQLString =N'CrEATE procedure a as select * from sysfiles'

  EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLString

  But I need the stored procedure to be created in a different database, Any ideas anyone?

  Found the solution just after posting the

  question

  If I execute the sp_executesql command from the destinaction database it works eg.

  EXECUTE northwind..sp_executesql @SQLString
