The short answer is no in Oracle7. You can in Oracle8. In 7, there are several things you can do to get around this, the most popular probably being using a database pipe and Pro*C daemon. In the stored procedure, put a message on the pipe. The daemon checks the pipe, and being Pro*C, can run the program. If need be, it can use the pipe to send a message back to the PL/SQL procedure.
