SQL: how to predicate over stored procedure's result sets?

Question

Simple question I couldn\'t figure out (not a SQL expert... sorry): I want to do a select on the result set of sp_who2. How can I?

for ex. select SPID from [result set f

Answer 1

You would have to insert the results into a table, a temporary table or a table variable.

CREATE TABLE #sp_who2 (etc...)

INSERT INTO #sp_who2 EXECUTE sp_who2

SELECT * FROM #sp_who2 WHERE whatever...

Another trick is using OPENROWSET
