Hi,

> Is there a limit in the number of lines in a stored procedure?

Upon creation, Stored Procedures are compiled into something
called BLR (Binary Language Representation). This is what
gets executed. It's not a matter of "how many lines", but a matter
of "how much BLR". There is a limit to the maximum amount
of BLR, I believe somewhere around 48Kb of BLR. But I can
be totally wrong on this.

You might want to break your procedure into small procedures
if you hit this limit, or to make your structure more clear anyway.
