 If the return tuple definition is fixed:

 select * from sp_myproc();

That's a great feature to have. 

 If the return tuple definition is *not* fixed:
 do
 select * from sp_myproc() as table_alias([col definition list]);
 
 Does this help any? Can he try the 7.3 beta?

Unfortunately no. They are not willing to use a beta so they are appearantly switching 
to SAP DB. Sorry.
