Maybe that's the difference... I'm running SQL Sever 2000 Enterprise Edition with SP4. Just kidding... I get the same execution plans on an SP3a box as well. I don't know what the difference is because I havn't altered Northwind on either of mine either.

| That assumes that the Column_Name field doesn't allow null values otherwise, I believe, if the value does happen to be null setting the @Param_Name to null won't "eliminate" it. Null is not equal to Null.
