I use Pro*C, Pro*COBOL, or Visual Basic when I want more control over how a user
accesses a database than triggers allow. It might be a canned report where the user
simply runs the program and enters the user ID/password or it might be data entry
where the user enters everything first then sends it to the database in a batch. It
might be for edit checks that are difficult or impossible in PL/SQL, for a more
user-friendly interface, or simply for more consistency in programming. (Note the
multiple languages above. I'm the only programmer in our shop who knows all 3
languages.)
