An example. I had a set of queries to delete an organisation from one table and then all the relative data in the database for that organisation. I wrote it originally in CF but it was taking about 2 minutes, and timing out, to procees. After putting the whole lot into a stored proc the execution time dropped to seconds.
Basically the process was not feasible in CF so was a good candidate for stored proc. Although I am talking Oracle here with PL/SQL not MSSQL which maybe different. In fact it was a PL/SQL package of stored procs to be more precise. So that is when I would use it basically. >Hi guys, > >I am just getting my head around stored procedures in SQL Server.
