I would like to execute the kill statement after I have selected the SPID's
with the following SQL. I have tried different stored procedures, but they don't seem to actually
execute the kill statment:
select spid from sysprocesses where loginame like 'fordna1%' and login_time < (getdate() - .5)I want to run this process as a job two times daily.

Try:
Declare @var nvarchar(255) Select @var = 'kill ' + convert(varchar(7),spid) from sysprocesses where loginame like 'fordna1%' and login_time < (getdate() - .5) Exec sp_executesql @var
