i have a procedure name query


i want to make a procedure name proc and call this query procedure inside this procedure
 
Bad naming :)
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE MyProc
AS
BEGIN
   CALL [Query]
END
If [QUERY] is placed in another Database you should use full anme of the proc:
DBName.schema.ProcedureName

I don't know if CALL is a SQL Server function, or not. But this should work;
Code:
create procedure test2
as
select getdate()
go

create procedure test1
as
exec test2
go

test1
 
My mistake, it is EXEC not CALL :)
Code:
CREATE PROCEDURE MyProc
AS
BEGIN
   [COLOR=red]EXEC[/color] [Query]
END

and if you want to execute an SP within another SP and use the returned results in a join, you can use a temp table..

Code:
BEGIN
	CREATE TABLE #TEMP (   
		ID int,
		Name varchar(30),
		Tel varchar(12)
    )

	INSERT INTO #TEMP (ID, Name, Tel)   
	EXEC dbo.spGetPeople


	SELECT Name, Tel, Address, PostCode
         FROM Addresses a 
         JOIN #TEMP t ON a.ID = t.ID

	DROP TABLE #TEMP
END
