What is the recommended method of creating a stored procedure in SQL 2005?
If open SQL Server Management Studio and go to MyDatabase -> Programmability -> Stored Procedures -> Right-click -> New Stored Procedure, I get the template. Is working from this template the most productive way of creating SP? What are other methods?
Once you create a SP, how do you execute it in SQL Server Management Studio?
In the SP template the CREATE PROCEDURE syntax is as following:
CREATE PROCEDURE <Procedure_name, sysname, ProcedureName>
Why is the ProcedureName there twice?
