>You mean Jim "No handouts for this session" Duffy :-)?

Yup <g>

>I attended the same session in Milwaukee and the book he may have mentioned is Professional SQL Server 7.0 Programming by Robert Viera from Wrox. But it is about other things in SQL Server, not just stored procedures. He may also have mentioned The Guru's Guide to Transact-SQL by Ken Henderson. I have both books, and they are great.

It must have been the Wrox book that I was thinking of. I had the impression from the title (which I saw for about two seconds when Jim held it up) that it was mostly about writing sp's. Anyway, thanks for the references. I'll check both of those out.
