SQL Server Management Studio now has a Debug button together with the Execute button (except that in Visual Studio, your F5 key would be your Debug command whereas in SQL Server, that would be the Run/Execute command).

This will allow you to step over your code – whether it is calling a stored procedure or a TSQL script – and step thru it a line at a time or at one shot. You can even step thru nested calls, like calling a stored procedure that calls another stored procedure. It will open up a new tab displaying the codes for the procedure or function that you are calling from your TSQL code. I’m just glad it’s already in RC0.
