Difference between Function and Stored Procedure?

User Defined Function  can be used in the SQL statements anywhere in the WHERE/HAVING/SELECT section where as Stored procedures cannot be.

UDFs that return tables can be treated as another rowset. This can be used in JOINs with other tables.
Inline UDF�s can be though of as views that take parameters and can be used in JOINs and other Rowset operations.
