How to call or execute a Stored Procedure from Select Statement in SQL Server?
It is really simple to call a stored procedure from a select statement Using OPENROWSET.
Below TSQL Query calls the procedure sp_who from the select statement.
[sql]
SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET(‘SQLNCLI’
,’Server=(local);Trusted_Connection=Yes;Database=Master’
,’EXEC dbo.sp_Who’)
[/sql]
Syntax:
[sql]
SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET(‘SQLNCLI’
,’Server=(local);Trusted_Connection=Yes;Database=Master’
,’EXEC [procedurename]’)
[/sql]
Additional Information:
The data that is coming from the procedure can also be filtered in the where clause.
[sql]
SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET(‘SQLNCLI’
,’Server=(local);Trusted_Connection=Yes;Database=Master’
,’EXEC dbo.sp_Who’)
where dbname = ‘master’
[/sql]
The data from the execution of a select statement can be directly pushed into a table.
[sql]
SELECT * INTO who2_table FROM
OPENROWSET(‘SQLNCLI’
,’Server=(local);Trusted_Connection=Yes;Database=Master’
,’EXEC dbo.sp_Who’)
where dbname = ‘master’
[/sql]
