I have a stored procedure that is performing some ddl dml operations. It retrieves a data after processing data from CTE and cross apply and other such complex things.

Now this returns me a 4 tables which gets binded to various sources at frontend. Now I want to use one of the table to further processing so as to get more usefull information from it.

eg. This table would be containing approx 2000 records at most of which i want to get records that belongs to lodging only.

This result is being obtained to me using some stored procedure which contains some DML operations as well.

i want something like this

select description from exec spName where fk_category_id=5

Remember that this spName is returning me 4 tables of which i want to perform some query on one of the table whose index will be known to me. I dont have to send it to UI before querying further.

I am using Sql Server 2008 but would like a compatible solution for 2005 also.
