Have you tried it as below?

Code:
 
function row
{
a=$1
b=$2
c=$(($a + $b))
d=$(($a * $b))
echo $a $b
}
row 2 3
echo "The value of c is $c"

MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)													     MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)

mssql_fetch_object - Fetch row as object

SYNOPSIS
object mssql_fetch_object (resource $result) DESCRIPTION
mssql_fetch_object(3) is similar to mssql_fetch_array(3), with one difference - an object is returned, instead of an array. Indirectly, that means that you can only access the data by the field names, and not by their offsets (numbers are illegal property names). Speed-wise, the function is identical to mssql_fetch_array(3), and almost as quick as mssql_fetch_row(3) (the difference is insignifi- cant). PARAMETERS
o $result - The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns an object with properties that correspond to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows. EXAMPLES
Example #1 mssql_fetch_object(3) example <?php // Send a select query to MSSQL $query = mssql_query('SELECT [username], [name] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]'); // Check if there were any records if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) { echo 'No records found'; } else { // Print a nice list of users in the format of: // * name (username) echo '<ul>'; while ($row = mssql_fetch_object($query)) { echo '<li>' . $row->name . ' (' . $row->username . ')</li>'; } echo '</ul>'; } // Free the query result mssql_free_result($query); ?> NOTES
Note Field names returned by this function are case-sensitive. Note This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value. SEE ALSO
mssql_fetch_array(3), mssql_fetch_row(3). PHP Documentation Group MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)
