    One innocent remark that does not minimize the high value of the question. I am thinking to drop tbl1 and tb2 tables at the end of the script:

    DROP TABLE tbl1

    DROP TABLE tbl2

    and to place a GO statement before CREATE PROCEDURE since 'CREATE/ALTER PROCEDURE' must be the first statement in a query batch.

    Regards,

    This is exactly why I got this right -- I assumed that the procedure would not compile because it was not the first statement in a batch the way it was written.
