New to stored procedure

[Hades5k]

Hello everyone,

I'm working a project using MS Project 2003 database. What I need to do is to get all entries for a specific user, from a specific project with specific citerias.

Its a web application, made with C#.

As it is right now, we're doing multiple queries with Data readers and DataTable, filtering those tables to fill new tables to achieve our goal. But the process takes about 13 sec to complete which is way too long.

So I decided to create a stored procedure and optimize the queries.

But I'm not a DBA, i'm a junior programmer and I don't know the subtleties of SQL Server.

Finally, here's my question.

It is possible or viable to, within a stored proc, parse a recordset and for each record to execute another query (maybe 2 or 3 times within the procedure), and fill a temporary recordset (from multiple select) which will be ultimely the one returned?

If you need more information, let me know! But I'm mainly looking for a general answer so I can apply it to more problems.

Thanks alot!
