(local) vs. the actual name of SQL Server when using a named instance

Hello,
My question is this: in a named instance installation of a SQL Server, when
you reference the server as (local) from a Stored Procedure that accesses a
table for example, will that point to the Named Instance or will it access
the table on the actual database on the main installation?
Thank you
leo
WHere yo you name the server as (local) in a stored procedure ? You
don=B4t have to. Just use the three or two part name that should be
enough for you.
