Centralizing Two Stored Procedure Queries (one using Cursor Ou

Alejandro,
Sorry, one more question: In your example, would there be any way to return
only a subset of the fields in the stored proc query. For example, if you
wanted a temporary table with only the orderid field. Like this:
create table #t (orderid int)
insert into #t(orderid)
exec dbo.p1 @.sd, @.ed
I'll need it like this because my store proc "spTrucker" has many, many
fields, and I only need about 4 or 5 of them in the cursor.
Thanks again,
John

The ddl for the temporary table need to match all columns returned by the
sp. You can not grab just a subset.
