SSRS report doesn't seem to pull in fields when using a stored procedure for dataset when that stored procedure uses dynamic SQL

$

I am using SSRS 2008 R2.

If I create a stored procedure that simply has a static SQL statement in it (I have included a highly oversimplified version of my query) and I use that stored procedure in defining a dataset, the fields included in that Select statement are nicely created for me on the dataset.

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spRptPlanNames] ()
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT vwPlan.pkPlan FROM [1ldr_cust].dbo.vwPlan

RETURN

However, if I take that same SQL statement and convert it dynamic SQL and use the EXEC command to execute the query within the stored procedure (I have included a highly oversimplified version of my query) , when I go to create the dataset I can still use that stored procedure and the query designer will do a successful preview on the data, however it will not automatically define all the fields on the dataset object. It essentially has no fields unless I manually create them.

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spRptPlanNames] (@spldrPlanStatus as varchar(100))
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @SQLStmt varchar(8000)
Set @SQLStmt = 'SELECT vwPlan.pkPlan FROM [1ldr_cust].dbo.vwPlan'
If rtrim(@spldrPlanStatus) <> 'ALL' and rtrim(@spldrPlanStatus) <> ''
 Begin
  Set @SQLStmt = @SQLStmt + ' WHERE vwPlan.U_PlanStatusfkPickFromList=' + @spldrPlanStatus
 End
EXEC (@SQLStmt)
RETURN

Am I doing something wrong or is this an understood limitation?  I was planning on converting over 100 reports to SSRS, using stored procedures, until I discovered this.
