My bad. It was a proc. I changed it to a function and all is well. Thanks for the help

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
A function returning a string does so correctly when calling it as stand-alone correctly returns:<br />
<br />
<b>EXEC EmployeeDietaryRestriction<wbr />_SELECT_Di<wbr />etPerEmpID<wbr /> 184</b><br />
<br />
Returns: 'Gluten-Free,Vegetrian,Veg<wbr />an,' &lt;&nbsp;correct<br />
<br />
However, when called in an SP it returns a incorrect value:<br />
<br />
<b>EXEC @DietaryRestriction = EmployeeDietaryRestriction<wbr />_SELECT_Di<wbr />etPerEmpID<wbr /> @EmployeeID </b> --184<br />
<br />
It Returns: '0' which is incorrect. It looks like a result code.<br />
<br />
Why doesn't it work called from an SP? What am I missing here? Thank you for any help.
