What is project K2?

The problem is that we are oftentimes adding field to the database, and instead of having to update every SPROC I would only like to update certain SPROCs.

When I create something start to finish, I usually use the approach you mention and I try to keep things as lean as possible so I don't have this same problem. The problem is that I am maintaining a huge POS (not point of sale) system that was built by people who had no business building it.
