Default How to use a stored procedure in a select statement

We have a stored procedure (see stub below) and want to use the result

If your purpose is to return a value, then you'll be better off utilizing
functions. for stored procedures to work, they have a syntax like this:

call uskill;

which i don't think you can put in a select statement; however, if you put that
same syntax in a function, you can easily call that function from any select
and/or stored procedure.

hope this helps.
