I have heard there is something in SQL Server that is a template for output where you set up what the output will look like first and then fill it in with query results and variable values later.

What is it called ?
How can I learn to use it ?

How can you get query results and variable values into html or text or printer or something like that ?

I queried a table in a stored procedure and put it in a cursor. Then I looped through the cursor and took some totals.
Now I'd like to put it in a form where it can be viewed and printed on the computer.

I hope that is specific enough. If you need more information, please let me know.
Thanks.

actually you dont need a cursor in most cases. you can use a set based solution and then retrive the totals. then use proper connection string to connect to dn from form and display the values

it's still not clear what you want to do. If you are looking to export data from SQL Server to text/Excel/CSV then you can use the Import-Export Wizard in SSMS. You can save the Wizard settings as a SSIS package and schedule it to run on a regular basis.

I'm asked to make a ColdFusion program call a stored procedure that runs a query, processes the query data, writes it to an html file, and copies that file to a directory. Users use the ColdFusion prog and the rest should be automatic.

So far I've got ColdFusion prog calling the stored procedure, report output going from a table to a table variable, and then printing to the results panel line by line.

Hope someone has a suggestion for an easy way to get those line by line results into a file to copy to a dir.
