Have you ever written a stored procedure like this?
create procedure GetProducts
@id int
AS BEGIN
if @id is not null
SELECT *
FROM Products
WHERE id = @id
ELSE
SELECT *
FROM Products
END
Here's a tip that DBAs and sql developers have known about for a while. You can shorten your query to this
create procedure MyProc
@id int
AS
SELECT *
FROM Products
WHERE (@id is null OR id = @id)
You should take care to examine the execution plan and make sure that it's not doing a table scan. Otherwise performance will suffer.
