I hoped I could do it with a trigger on a table (in which I dump the
arguments to the COBOL program), but triggers can only execute PL/SQL
commands from which I don't know how to fire up a system command. I
need something like the "HOST" command which is available only from
SQL/Forms.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
(Oracle Version 7), I need to initiate/trigger a Unix program (acutally
a COBOL program that is compiled to an executable) on the IBM.
