I'm not sure about Sybase, I suppose it's the same principle as in SQL
Server. You have to either generate a dynamic query, by building a string
and running it via the execute function, or have a conditional statement to
select one query or another depending on the sort variable passed. The first
option is more flexible the second more efficent.

Subject: Stored Procedure Question (Sybase)
We are in the process of moving all our queries to stored procedures, but
I've run into a problem that maybe someone can help me with.
Take the following query. If I move it to a stored procedure and try to
pass the sort variable to it I get an error along the lines of you can't
use a variable in an order by (I forget the exact wording).
<CFQUERY NAME="detail" DATASOURCE="GVDB">
SELECT
vaba, np_code, partnum, qty, fe_usl, asl
FROM
gvware..mytd_b3f021_parts
WHERE
asl="#url.asl#" and
trans_month="#trans_month#"
ORDER BY
<CFIF IsDefined("SORT")>
#sort#
<CFELSE>
vaba,asl,fe_usl
</CFIF>
</CFQUERY>
Can anyone help?
