I have an SP that inserts some records and updates others and deletes some.

I have an SP that inserts some records and updates others and deletes some. What I want is to return the count values of what was inserted and what was updated and what was deleted. I thought I could use @@ROWCOUNT but that is always giving me a 1.

After my INSERT I run: 

PRINT @@ROWCOUNT

But my message console shows what really happened and this number:

(36 row(s) affected)
1

So I can see that 36 records were actually updated but @@ROWCOUNT returned a 1.

I am trying to do the same thing after the UPDATE and DELETE parts of the SP runs with the same result.

    @@ROWCOUNT will show the number of rows affected by the most recent statement – if you have any statements between the INSERT and the PRINT then it will give you the wrong number.

    Can you show us a little more code so we can see the order of execution?
