Subject: [AccessD] Returning the value from a stored procedure

I want to execute a stored procedure that just returns a single value.  The
value will be a long since that is what stored procedures can return without
jumping through hoops.\

I can use an db.OpenRecordset("MySPName") to return an entire table but I
don't want to do that, just get a single value which is not a recordset.

So what syntax do I use to get this value back in Access?
