Question

I have a dynamic query which I call and I put the Result set in a variable table

INSERT INTO @outTable 

EXEC sp_executesql @query;

The problem is that @outTable should change When adding column in @query – @query is another stored procedure.

I tried to use a CTE (WITH), but it does not work with EXEC.

Is this possible do to in T-SQL?

Something like this

DECLARE @outTable TABLE (
                            ID int,
                            Record_ID int, 
                            Order_ID nchar(16),
                            ...and around 30 columns
                        );  

    SET @query = N'EXEC [OrderDep].[Order_Find] @FreeWhere =N'' WHERE '+ @Where +'''';

    BEGIN TRY 
        INSERT INTO @outTable 
            EXEC sp_executesql @query;

    END TRY     
    BEGIN CATCH

When using insert ... exec ..., the table definition must match the output from the stored procedure.

Since you’re creating the @query statement, you probably know what it’s going to return. It may be a lot of work, but you’ll have to adjust the table definition by hand.
