Example 1: create a quick temp table with stored procedure sql
CREATE TYPE Names AS TABLE
(Name VARCHAR(10)) ;
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE ChooseAName
@CandidateNames Names READONLY
AS
DECLARE @candidates TABLE (NAME VARCHAR(10),
theOrder UNIQUEIDENTIFIER)
INSERT INTO @candidates (name, theorder)
SELECT name, NEWID()
FROM @CandidateNames
SELECT TOP 1
NAME
FROM @Candidates
ORDER BY theOrder
GO
DECLARE @MyFavouriteCowName AS Names ;
INSERT INTO @MyFavouriteCowName (Name)
SELECT 'Bossy' UNION SELECT 'Bessy' UNION SELECT 'petal' UNION SELECT 'Daisy' UNION SELECT 'Lulu' UNION SELECT 'Buttercup' UNION SELECT 'Bertha' UNION SELECT 'Bubba' UNION SELECT 'Beauregard' UNION SELECT 'Brunhilde' UNION SELECT 'Lore' UNION SELECT 'Lotte' UNION SELECT 'Rosa' UNION SELECT 'Thilde' UNION SELECT 'Lisa' UNION SELECT 'Peppo' UNION SELECT 'Maxi' UNION SELECT 'Moriz' UNION SELECT 'Marla'
