SQL Server (2008) Pass ArrayList or String to SP for IN()

Question

I was wondering how I can pass either an ArrayList, List> or StringBuilder comma delimited list to a stored procedure such that I find a list of IDs usin

Answer 1

In SQL 2008 there are table-valued-parameters, that make a friendly alternative to parsing CSV; see here for an example.

Otherwise, another option is xml - the xml data type in SQL Server allows you to read this pretty easily (although it takes more transfer bytes).
