Question

Let’s say I have a stored procedure which returns a large set of data. Can I write another query to filter the result of stored procedure?

For example:

select * from
EXEC xp_readerrorlog
where LogDate = '2011-02-15'

Answer 1

You would need to first insert the results of the stored procedure on a table, and then query those results.

create table #result (LogDate datetime, ProcessInfo varchar(20),Text text)

INSERT INTO #Result
EXEC xp_readerrorlog

SELECT *
FROM #Result
WHERE datepart(yy,LogDate) = '2012'
