 WHILE @value_start_pos > 0 AND @value_finish_pos > 0  
     start  
  INSERT @value (value_name) VALUES( SUBSTRING(@tri_sql,  @value_start_pos + 1, @value_finish_pos - @value_start_pos - 1))  
 
  SET @value_start_pos = CHARINDEX('[', @tri_sql, @value_finish_pos + 1)  
  SET @value_finish_pos = CHARINDEX(']', @tri_sql, @value_start_pos + 1)  
     finish

Answer : ms sql server - declare a table with no value...

Your question is a little confusing to me.

Your sample is declaring the variable. Are you looking to create a table on the fly?
This creates a Temp Table on the fly:
SELECT * INTO ##TempTableName FROM TableName
