Getting the OUT parameter of stored proc in .cmd file.

Hi,
Iam new to BCP and .cmd commands in sqlserver. I want to know how to access
the output parameter of stored proc in .cmd command. Based on the value i
need to terminate the program. Below are the details.
In the .cmd file we use the below syntax for truncating a table.
isql -E -S%1 -d%2 -Q"truncate table tb_mast"
Right now this needs to be replaced by calling a stored procedure by passing
the table name and get the return value to check sucess/failure through the
output parameter. If any error the program (.cmd) should terminate.
Store procedure is ready and it is working fine. Procedure will be like
sp_truncate_table (paramerer1 IN, parameter2 OUTPUT). If successful
parameter2 will be set as 0, else 1.
How do I call the procedure in the .cmd file and check the success/failure by
getting the output parameter?
Please help me in this regard. Hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks in advance.
Vivek.

rHi,
May not be possible directly. Why do you want to have a command file to do
this?
You could truncate table inside the stored procedure by implementing a
condition right.If there is any technical difficulty please write back.
Thanks

Have a look at the EXIT command that can be used with isql. You can use
it to set the ERRORLEVEL based the results of a query.
