Hi,

[Quoted] [Quoted] Is it possible to execute a Unix command DIRECTLY from an Oracle8 stored procedure? I've looked through the mans, and the closest I get is an example of DBMS_PIPE use, where the stored procedure uses DBMS_PIPE to call [Quoted] an ever-running Pro*C process, which then runs the system command. But is there a more direct/straightforward solution?

Thanx
