No, not me. But when I was as SQL PASS in Seattle this past November, I saw a demo of Yukon where there were writing stored procedures in C# and VB.NET. While it is still called a stored procedure, it was very similar to how extended stored procedures are written today in C and C++, but with lots if improvements. This is a new feature which will add lots of functionality to SQL Server, but at the same time, make our jobs as DBAs a little tougher. ------------------ Brad M.
