I see you've been given alot of advice about trapping the error. To get the output parameter value back prefix the variable name with ?@. It can even be a local variable. I also 'seed' the variable with the proper datatype. For example, the following will execute my stored procedure to get a new Primary Key for a Claim:

local lnId, lnResult

lnId = 0
lnResult = SqlExec(g_oAppMain.nConnHdl, "Exec SpMc_GetNewId 'CLAIM', ?@lnId")
if lnResult < 0
...

HTH,
