Hi,
Is it possible to use Stored Procedures inside query? I have SP with some results and is it possible to use that inside a query.

Only with major trickery, not recommended.

You could INSERT INTO #temp (column_list) EXEC sp, or alternatively reform the sp as a table-valued function, preferably inline.

If the SP can be modified to a TVF, then you can use the result in your query.
