    Hi , can anyone help me about dynamic sql. I try to write an automatic restore script. But i don't know the syntax and i get always errors.

    i don't know how to add "@variable" into a Move to command

    Here's the script :

    declare @newBase nvarchar(4000)

    declare @backupDevice nvarchar(4000)

    set @newBase = 'try_restore2'

    set @backupDevice = 'BackupDevice_Name'

    RESTORE DATABASE @newBase FROM @backupDevice

    WITH FILE = 1,

    MOVE @backupDevice + '_data' TO 'e:\MSSQL\data\'+ @newBase + '_Data.MDF''',

    MOVE @backupDevice + '_log' TO 'e:\MSSQL\data\'+ @newBase + '_Log.LDF''',

    STANDBY = N'e:\MSSQL\BACKUP\ROLLBACK_UNDO_' + @backupDevice + '.BAK',

    NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10

    GO

    Thanks for any help.
