Hello,

Is there a way to define a CTE with a dynamic query? What I want to do is somethign like this:

declare @strg varchar(1000), @where varchar(1000)
set @strg = 'select email, id from employees'
set @strg = @strg + 'where id between 1000 and 2000';

WITH table1 (rid, email)
AS
(
exec (@strg)
)

select *
from table1

Any help is welcome.

Thanks

no you can't do that.
you have to have the whole CTE dynamic.
