Hi Gunnar,

You can use utl_file, it doesn't read from the same directory, you specify utl_file_dir locations pre 9iR2 and directory objects 9iR2 onwards to where you want it to read from and then you open and read the fil3es you wish. You could also use external procedures and use C, you could use java database procedures? you could use an external table?

hth

kind regards

Pete
