This seems to be XML used solely to say you use XML. What is the real benefit? Seems to just make the parameters bigger. Making everything a single parameter that you parse out would seem to negate the benefits of a stored procedure and push lotsof work onto the server that isn't needed.

I agree with the last reply. I don't find any advantage of using xml with the stored proc. params. I was hoping somebody can post more examples of this or explain in more detail the advantages of this.
