How to Share Data between Stored Procedures

"Another solution, which requires SQL 2008, comes from Wayne Bloss. He creates a table type that holds the definition of the temp table. You can only use table types for declaring table variable and table parameters. But Wayne has a cure for this:

DECLARE @dummy my_table_type

SELECT * INTO #mytemp FROM @dummy

From this point you work with #mytemp; the sole purpose of @dummy is to be able to create #mytemp from a known and shared definition. (If you are unacquainted with table types, we will take a closer look on them in the section on table-valued parameters.) A limitation with this method is that you can only centralise column definitions this way, but not constraints as they are not copied with SELECT INTO. You may think that constraints are odd things you rarely put in a temp table, but I have found that it is often fruitful to add constraints to my temp tables as assertions for my assumptions about the data. This does not the least apply for temp tables that are shared between stored procedures. Also, defining primary keys for your temp tables can avoid performance issues when you start to join them."
