I am trying to debug a SQL procedure, and am using the following query to do so.

USE [database]
GO

DECLARE @return_value int

EXEC    @return_value = [dbo].[Populate]
        @ssId = 201

SELECT  'Return Value' = @return_value

GO

The problem is, the procedure I am testing, (Populate) doesn't seem to stop at any of the breakpoints I assign to it. Is there a different way to add breakpoints such that I can follow the debugger? I am getting the following error: "Invalid line number specified with SQL breakpoint".

Actually, if you have SQL Server 2008, you can once again debug in Management Studio.

Each of these articles will take you through it step by step, with screenshots. It could hardly be easier.
