OK, my code is just simulating what would have been entered in the textbox.
So I changed it to this:
m.CompanyID = "' or 1 = 1; drop table deleteMe ; --"
m.lcWhereClause = "WHERE test = ?m.CompanyID"
TEXT TO m.lcSQL NOSHOW TEXTMERGE
SELECT *
FROM deleteme
<<m.lcWhereClause>>
ENDTEXT
m.llSuccess = RunSQL(m.lnHandle, m.lcSQL, "", "c_junk")
It ran with no unexpected result. The deleteme table is still in the
database. What are you expecting to happen?
Maybe you can take my code and adjust it to show what the issue is?
Frank.

Actually, in the textbox of your form, you would put it there.
' or 1 = 1; Drop table deleteMe ; --
The closing quote mark, the Or condition with the semicolon. Next
statement is simple to delete a table in the database with another
semicolon. Then put in 2 minus signs to comment out the rest of the code
that you thought was going to operate.

Stephen,
just in case you missed my question:
Do you mean change this line:
m.CompanyID = "1 = 1; drop table deleteMe ; --"
To this:
m.CompanyID = "or 1 = 1; drop table deleteMe ; --"

create a table deleteMe
In the form put text like this: [any value for a customer here] or 1
= 1
; drop table deleteMe ; --
m.CompanyID = ALLTRIM(thisform.CoCode.value)
m.lcWhereClause = "WHERE emp.CpnyID = ?m.CompanyID"
What do you see in the entire statement you put together?
If you run it against a SQL box does your table disappear?
To get around 1 = 1 you could have a TON of different combinations to
get a
true result. 'abc <> 'cba' does the trick to create a true condition
and
off it goes.

I've never doubted the benefits of stored procedures and if I were an

is
to
build interfaces to move data between different systems. I am usually
provided with READ-ONLY SQL credentials so I can then issue SELECT

Our systems pull data in one direction only and when I describe

far more complicated queries with lots of moving parts):
lcWhereClause = "WHERE emp.CpnyID = '" +
ALLTRIM(thisform.CoCode.value)

SELECT
CAST(emp.CpnyID AS CHAR(20)) AS compid,

emp.NameLast as lname,
emp.StrtDate as hire_date
FROM dbo.Employee emp

ENDTEXT

We accept and validate the selection of the CoCode by the user and
then
we
construct the "dynamic query." I suspect your perception of a Dynamic
Query
is greatly different than mine. The point of my original comment was
to
praise the ease with which I can construct SQL statements in a
TEXT/ENDTEXT
construct and I think this example shows that

Subject: Re: [NF] What would you miss from VFP, when migrating
I am backing off of licenses for SQL Enterprise down to Standard for
2/3
of
all my SQL Server usage in my new deployments. Use to have a total
of
96
cores running Ent. and now seeing if we can only use 30. Having
virtual
guests instead of a single bad ass box makes this a lot easier to do.
Dynamic SQL can burn you.

Making a stored procedure is common sense. Why you cannot see the
beauty
of it for long term source code is lost on me. Say you make a change
to
a
table. You can easily find every sproc that referenced that table
with
this statement and miss all that you have fixed:
declare @text varchar(50)
, @stringtosearch varchar(100)
, @comment varchar(150)
set @text = 'Warehouse'
set @comment ='%WarehouseChange fixed%'
SET @stringtosearch = '%' +@text + '%'
SELECT Distinct SO.Name
FROM sysobjects SO (NOLOCK)
INNER JOIN syscomments SC (NOLOCK) on SO.Id = SC.ID
AND SO.Type = 'P'
AND SC.Text LIKE @stringtosearch
and SO.id not in
(select distinct SO1.ID
FROM sysobjects SO1 (NOLOCK)
INNER JOIN syscomments SC1 (NOLOCK) on SO1.Id = SC1.ID
AND SO1.Type = 'P'
AND SC1.Text LIKE @comment)
ORDER BY SO.Name
You can then cross reference every place that the table was used and
see
if
you need to tweak the data access to include the change you just made
to
the column.
We just got handed an oh by the way that hits a major focus on how we
track
sales. We use to give all sales to the plant that made them, which
makes
sense. Over time we have created warehouses in areas of the country
to
hold
product for delivery to a customer rich area. Sure the ERP already
did
this but the early reporting team never saw that value.
All of these changes are only in our BI/reporting system or our
customer
portal. We have to identify over 1000 sprocs to validate that
nothing
needs to be done here and only 150 really need to be altered.
How would you find that in your prgs? I use the power of the db
engine
to do a lot of things like this for me.
