>The topic this week: passing tables as parameters to stored procedures
>
>Over the years, SQL database developers have used many different techniques for trying to pass a variable number of key values to a procedure.
>
>Options have included CSV strings, XML strings, temporary tables, and (yuck) cursors.
>
>All of them work (though cursors are the worst) - however, in SQL 2008, Microsoft added a new table type, so that developers could pass table variables (declared as table type templates) to stored procs.
