| Well, it would help if you told us WHAT exactly you want to do with the results! Right now I'm reading your question as "I want to get in a car, turn the ignition key, put the car in gear and drive somewhere. How do I do that?" |

Quite often, you can use INSERT...SELECT.... syntax to populate a temp table with the resultset you've generated. However, it's usually more effiecint, albeit sometimes less readable, to make your SELECT actually a derived table in the FROM clause of the DML that requires the resultset.<O> |
