The sp_ prefix is used by system wide stored procs that live in the master database. When you invoke a sp_proc, SQL Server will look in the master database first, if it can't find that proc in the master DB, then it looks inside your application database. So you pay a small amount of lookup time for every proc execution. It's not going to be a major amount, but it's good practice to not use the sp_ convention for your procs.Damian"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." - Emerson |
