[AccessD] SQL Server - Turn field list into string

I have learned how to do this with a cursor, however now I need to learn 
to pass cursors.

I perform this action the first time when I take the difference in 
fields between a base data table and a view with criteria.  I want to 
get the criteria fields, whatever they might be, and append them to the 
tblOrderData.  However... I then go on to do some processing, and then 
later need that same list of tables.  The problem is that by then the 
base tblOrderData has the fields added to it so there no longer is a 
difference in fields between tblOrderData and vOrderCriteria, so I can 
no longer get that difference.  For this reason I need to get the cursor 
in the first step, then hold it open and pass it off to other stored 
procedures later on.

I have never looked at passing a cursor to a stored procedure.  Is a 
cursor a data type that I can just pass in and out of a stored procedure?
