You can use the "Transform Data Task" in the DTS Package (3rd task in the first row). In the Source SQL query, Exec the stored procedure! |

I've many DTS packages which is extracting data from SQL tables & exporting into a flat file. Did you "Define the columns" of the output file in the Destination tab of "Tran Data Task"? |
