Maybe this points towards the real problem, that SPs are perceived to be a
pain?  We use Visual Studio to edit and debug stored procedures on a SQL
Server 7 database and it is very simple, with code highlighting, and
tooltip-style variable inspection.

I have heard the argument that all updates to a database should be done
through stored procedures to easily ensure consistency (for a complex
operation) and enhance security as users no longer need permissions to
update tables directly.
