Table variables

  • thanks for the easy question.

  • Thanks for the semi-easy question. I say semi-easy because I was going to just jump all over it and be like "Yes! Of course you can!" and then the uncertainty hit me and I thought to myself..."This is QotD...so...what's the catch?" After a few moments of deep thought, I went with my gut and got it right.



    Everything is awesome!

  • Really, really easy one - thanks!

  • Thanks for a good (and not tricky) question.

  • Thanks for the easy one! Should have been "can temp tables" be used in UDFs - that may have fooled a few :hehe:

    Nice easy one today.

    Perhaps it would have been a good idea to provide the appropriate BoL reference: CREATE FUNCTION (Transact-SQL) which contains the statement

    In multistatement table-valued functions, @return_variable is a TABLE variable, used to store and accumulate the rows that should be returned as the value of the function

    and that answers the question rather clearly - if some functions have to use a table variable, then certainly functions can use table variables.

  • Excellent one-point question. 21% wrong answers = no such thing as a too-easy QotD.

  • Nice Question and Easy

  • we can use table variable in UDF's. But performance issues will raise.....:w00t:
