Creating recurive stored procedures in T-SQL.

In SQLServer, I tried to define a stored procedure to recursively invoke itself (See the following T-SQL statements). However, the maximum nesting level of recursion is 30 (Tested under SQL Server 2000). Once the nesting level is exceeded, an error will occur. Another thing I'd like to mention here is that, there would be a warning message prompted by SQL Server as 'Cannot add rows to sysdepends for the current stored procedure because it depends on the missing object 'test_recursion'. The stored procedure will still be created.'.

create   procedure  test_recursion
@count  int   =   10
as  
declare  @cnt  int ;
set  @cnt  =  @count  -   1 ;
print   ' executing stored procedre :  '   +   cast (@count  as   nvarchar );
if  @cnt  >   0   execute  test_recursion @cnt;  --  Recursive invocation.
go

execute  test_recursion  30 ;  --  The maximum nesting level of stored procedure is 30.

The output result of this procedure is as follows:
Cannot add rows to sysdepends for the current stored procedure because it depends on the missing object 'test_recursion'. The stored procedure will still be created.
