I have a stored procedure that returns rows:
CREATE PROCEDURE MyProc
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM MyTable
END
My actual procedure is a little more complicated, which is why a sproc is necessary.
Is it possible to select the output by calling this procedure?
Something like:
SELECT * FROM (EXEC MyProc) AS TEMP
I need to use SELECT TOP X
, ROW_NUMBER
, and an additional WHERE
clause to page my data, and I don't really want to pass these values as parameters.

It sounds like you might just need to use a view. A view allows a query to be represented as a table so it, the view, can be queried.
For the sake of simplicity and to make it re-runnable, I have used a system StoredProcedure "sp_readerrorlog" to get data:
-----USING Table Variable
DECLARE @tblVar TABLE (
LogDate DATETIME,
ProcessInfo NVARCHAR(MAX),
[Text] NVARCHAR(MAX)
)
INSERT INTO @tblVar Exec sp_readerrorlog
SELECT LogDate as DateOccured, ProcessInfo as pInfo, [Text] as Message FROM @tblVar
-----(OR): Using Temp Table
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#temp') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #temp;
CREATE TABLE #temp (
LogDate DATETIME,
ProcessInfo NVARCHAR(55),
Text NVARCHAR(MAX)
)
INSERT INTO #temp EXEC sp_readerrorlog
SELECT * FROM #temp
You need to declare a table type which contains the same number of columns your store procedure is returning. Data types of the columns in the table type and the columns returned by the procedures should be same
declare @MyTableType as table
(
FIRSTCOLUMN int
,.....
)
Then you need to insert the result of your stored procedure in your table type you just defined
Insert into @MyTableType
EXEC [dbo].[MyStoredProcedure]
In the end just select from your table type
Select * from @MyTableType
You either want a Table-Valued function or insert your EXEC into a temporary table:
INSERT INTO #tab EXEC MyProc
use OPENQUERY and befor Execute set 'SET FMTONLY OFF; SET NOCOUNT ON;'
Try this sample code:
SELECT top(1)*
FROM
OPENQUERY( [Server], 'SET FMTONLY OFF; SET NOCOUNT ON; EXECUTE [database].[dbo].[storedprocedure] value,value ')
If 'DATA ACCESS' false,
EXEC sp_serveroption 'SQLSERVERNAME', 'DATA ACCESS', TRUE
after,
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(SQLSERVERNAME, 'EXEC DBNAME..MyProc @parameters')
it works.
You can cheat a little with OPENROWSET :
SELECT ...fieldlist...
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI', 'connection string', 'name of sp')
WHERE ...
This would still run the entire SP every time, of course.
It is not necessary use a temporary table.
This is my solution
SELECT * FROM
OPENQUERY(YOURSERVERNAME, 'EXEC MyProc @parameters')
WHERE somefield = anyvalue
You can copy output from sp to temporaty table.
CREATE TABLE #GetVersionValues
(
[Index] int,
[Name] sysname,
Internal_value int,
Character_Value sysname
)
INSERT #GetVersionValues EXEC master.dbo.xp_msver 'WindowsVersion'
SELECT * FROM #GetVersionValues
drop TABLE #GetVersionValues
You can
... sql ....
Declare @T Table ([column definitions here])
Insert @T Exec storedProcname params
Select * from @T Where ...
Try converting your procedure in to an Inline Function which returns a table as follows:
CREATE FUNCTION MyProc()
RETURNS TABLE AS
RETURN (SELECT * FROM MyTable)
And then you can call it as
SELECT * FROM MyProc()
You also have the option of passing parameters to the function as follows:
CREATE FUNCTION FuncName (@para1 para1_type, @para2 para2_type , ... )
And call it
SELECT * FROM FuncName ( @para1 , @para2 )
You must read about OPENROWSET and OPENQUERY
SELECT *
INTO #tmp FROM
OPENQUERY(YOURSERVERNAME, 'EXEC MyProc @parameters')
If your server is called SERVERX for example, this is how I did it...
EXEC sp_serveroption 'SERVERX', 'DATA ACCESS', TRUE;
DECLARE @CMD VARCHAR(1000);
DECLARE @StudentID CHAR(10);
SET @StudentID = 'STUDENT01';
SET @CMD = 'SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY([SERVERX], ''SET FMTONLY OFF; SET NOCOUNT ON; EXECUTE MYDATABASE.dbo.MYSTOREDPROC ' + @StudentID + ''') WHERE SOMEFIELD = SOMEVALUE';
EXEC (@CMD);
To check this worked, I commented out the EXEC()
command line and replaced it with SELECT @CMD
to review the command before trying to execute it! That was to make sure all the correct number of single-quotes were in the right place. :-)
I hope that helps someone.
