• Interesting code.

    But can't use just do either of these:

    DECLARE @result TABLE (value decimal(24, 4))

    INSERT INTO @result

    EXEC('SELECT 3.0 / 4 + 3.2')

    SELECT * FROM @result

    Or:

    DECLARE @value decimal(24, 4)

    EXEC sp_executesql N'SELECT @value = 3.0 / 4 + 3.2', N'@value decimal(24, 4) OUTPUT', @value OUTPUT

    PRINT @value

    ?
