Thanks for the quick reply Sean!The last catch to my problem is that I then have to join this created table to other table(s) (actual tables).
Do you know how to join to the results of a stored procedure?
Thank you again in advance!
Well technically the return from a stored procedure is an integer. 🙂 You can however capture the results of a select statement from within your stored procedure. You have to first create a table that has the same structure as your select statement, then you can insert. Below is a skeleton example.
create table #MyTable
(
[COLUMNS]
)
insert #MyTable
exec MyProc
