Here's some more information on managed code UDF's in SQL Server 2005:

>From CLR Integration example, DAT418 (Christian Kleinerman):

Public Function
GetTax(ByVal amount As Integer) As Integer
Return (amount * 0.68)
End Function

Compile code into an assembly.

SQL Server 2005:

CREATE ASSEMBLY FinancialLib
FROM 'c:\FinLib\bin\ bl.dll'
WITH PERMISSION_SET = EXTERNAL_ACCESS

After that step, the assembly is copied into SQL Server.

CREATE FUNCTION financial.GetTa x(@it int)
RETURNS decimal(38,10)
AS EXTERNAL

SELECT financial.GetTa x(id)
FROM hr.employees;
