You just pass parameters to a batch file by appending them to the end of the file name, with a space between each parameter:

FOO.BAT NorthwindDB ServerName msbyuva 12345

And if you need to pass spaces in a parameter, just surround it in quotes:

FOO.BAT NorthwindDB "Server Name" msbyuva 12345

And if you need to remove those quotes in FOO.BAT you can use ~ notation:

set ServerName=%~2
