Since you did not include the twist, and also insisted on not including
the complete error message, you cannot count for much help. But apparently
you used " where you should have used '. By default " delimites identifiers,
not string literals. (But in OSQL, it's actually different to confuse.)
However, I do spot an error in Josh's suggestion: he inserts into a
table variable. That does not fly with INSERT-EXEC. Must use temp table.

It has. If you look at the syntax grapgh you will see that no option
is mandatory, but that there are four options of which you must pick
one.
