Cetin,
Thank you for your reply. I don't have PUTM (I can justify it for myself, but I am having a hard time justifying it to my bosses {the VP and my wife <s>}), so I can't search. If you could link the message it would be great.

What do you mean by: You specify commandtext and commandtype to be a stored procedure? I do specify that it is a SP in the commandtype, and I specify the command text in the contructor of the command.
