Hi All,

I have a stored procedure with 'n' no. of select queries in it. When I assign this to a dataset I want to name the datatables as it is with the name of the tables for which I have written the select queries.

For Ex: The below stored proc will return a dataset with 3 datatables and I should assign the name for Table1 as t1 and for table2 as test and table3 as test1.

Is this possible without hard coding?

SQL

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[MY_StoredProc]
AS
BEGIN

    select * from t1
    select * from test
    Select * from test1

END

Thanks & Regards,
Mathi.

Could you be more specific? If i understand you well, you want to get the names of tables returned by SP. Am i right?

Solution 1

I think it could be done. You can build intelligence by returning table names as last column name. After this you simply need to alter your data loading code. After you call the stored procedure you simply read last column of the data and save it as table name.
