The return results depends on the passed type so I plan to return a result set anyway (although I can munch it in T-SQL also). But you're right, I'll go now with the T-SQL solution. Still playing with ADO.NET gives me some experience and I can at least see I can get the result this way also. But probably should not have wasted the time.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
