>The book is incorrect. When you follow steps you outlined below, you get a T-SQL template to create a sproc. Keith explained in other thread how to replace template placeholders with values you want. After you do that, you'll have T-SQL script to create the sproc. The sproc itself is a part of the script. You can save script (SAVE) for future modifications. EXECUTE script to add sproc to the database.

It was so simple in SQL 2000, everything was very intuitive and clear. I know you didn't create SQL 2005 <g>, I am just venting my frustration.
