Is there a way to create functions in MS SQL Server 7.0?
If not, can I create a stored procedure instead and use it in the select query.

for example I've got a number stored in the database and I write a stored procedure to decode that number and read the string description associated with it. and then I use it in select statement to print the description along with other fields instead of numbers.

thanks,
ujjaval

Functions are not available in SQL Server 7.0
You can get the output of the procedure into a temp table and use it in a query.
