Not a bad point. Then again, once you hit your first 1200-line stored procedure, full of logical bugs including SQL injections, you'll realize SQL isn't that amazing either :)

If your stored procedure has 1200 lines, you're doing something wrong.

How about recreating a report to feed into a legacy system from an ERP installation with 5,000 tables and 12,000 stored procedures - none of which you're allowed to modify or face losing support?

I also try my best to avoid SQL procedures as much as possible (except for database migrations; no avoiding them there). The 1200 line procedure should definitely be written in a real programming language, but what's done is done, I guess haha.
