    I need to insert empty row in a temp table within a stored procedure.

    Where is the DDL? There is no such concept in RDBMS.

    ...

    What kind of concept is missing here?

    Why is it a problem to have a temp table with empty rows?

    It can be used to build cartesian products, and it's quite easy to populate it, for example:

    -- create temp table and populate it with 10 empty rows

    SELECT TOP 10 CAST(null AS CHAR(1)) c INTO #t

    FROM sys.columns

    -- Select each row from MyTable as many times (10) as many empty rows found in #t

    SELECT t.*

    FROM dbo.MyTable

    CROSS JOIN #t

    See? A bit of creativity and concept flies. :hehe:

    However, I am sure it's not what OP does need it for...
