Я не понял что значит "выдает несколько результатов, а нужно один", но я бы написал это так:

CREATE PROCEDURE sp @select_id int
AS
declare @d table(id int, level int)
declare @level int
set @level=0

insert @d select @select_id,0

while exists(select * from TBL, @d where id=PARENT_ID and level=@level)
begin
insert @d
select ID, @level+1 from TBL, @d where id=PARENT_ID and level=@level
set @level=@level+1
end

select t.* from TBL t, @d
where id=ID

Наверное лучше чем в BOL не напишешь(топик table variables)

Functions and variables can be declared to be of type table. table variables can be used in functions, stored procedures, and batches.

Use table variables instead of temporary tables, whenever possible . table variables provide the following benefits:

A table variable behaves like a local variable. It has a well-defined scope, which is the function, stored procedure, or batch in which it is declared.
Within its scope, a table variable may be used like a regular table. It may be applied anywhere a table or table expression is used in SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements. However, table may not be used in the following statements:

INSERT INTO table_variable EXEC stored_procedure

SELECT select_list INTO table_variable statements.

table variables are cleaned up automatically at the end of the function, stored procedure, or batch in which they are defined.

table variables used in stored procedures result in fewer recompilations of the stored procedures than when temporary tables are used.


Transactions involving table variables last only for the duration of an update on the table variable. Thus, table variables require less locking and logging resources.
