I am just starting to learn about stored procs and how great they can make my world. I have been able to create a pro that does some data checking and inserts based on the results but what I have not been able to figure out is how would I pass a message from the proc to my Perl script that calls it? If anyone could point me in the right direction on what commands I should be looking into I would appreciate it.

You need to declare an output parameter in SP and then set message text in this parameter.

Create Proc SomeSp
(
@p1 int,
@p2 int,
@out varchar(200)
)
as
-- some logic

Set @out = 'Some Message here'
GO


I don't know how the SP is called and output parameter is accessed from Perl script though.
