I am looking for a way to pass multiple strings back to a stored procedure. Its much easier if your trying to pass integers, because you can just pass a comma-seperated list. Im thinking the best way to go is make the parameter that needs to accept a list as an xml datatype and then use xquery to get the list for use in the main query.

suggestions ?

The common practice on passing a large set of variables to a stored procedure is to create a table and populate, then referance in the procedure, or declaring multiple input variables and populate each one. All other methods are really not recomended.
