[Quoted] Thanx for the help. Unfortunately, we are using Oracle 7.3.3 which as far as
I can tell doesn't utilise external procedures. They are a feature of
Version 8 (according to Oracle Technology Network). Rather that writing 'C'
programs, all we want to do is exectue SQL, PL/SQL & Unix Scripts on the
server from a remote PC.
I thought it was going to be a simple thing to do !
