Answer Posted / ashwini
1. User defined functions can be used in select statements.
Procedures can not be used.
2. Functions must return some value. Procedures do not
always return the value.
3. Functions will take only input parameters. Procedures
can take input as well as output parameters.
4. Not all types of user-defined functions use
INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE statements(Only multi-statement table
valued functions can use). All procedures can use these
statements.
