Hi all,  

I have a problem I hope you could help with.  

I have a job running on db server side as a cron and it creates information (log files). What methods I have if I want to read those log files with some pl/sql procedure etc (I mean from inside the db), are there any others than utl_file (which I suppose reads always at the same directory...)  

I am using 9iRel2 on Sun Solaris...  

Thanks in advance
Gunnar
