Hi

This is possible. You can use the package dbms_job to insert the job. The parameter for the interval is optional.  Insert a job like

"exec dbms_job.submit(v_var,'myprocedure;',sysdate+1);"
 Run the job any time you want with:

"exec dbms_job.run(v_var)"

 Change the job with "exec dbms_job.run(v_var)  Remove the job with "exec dbms_job.remove(v_var)

The variable v_var is a binary integer which can be retrieved from the tables dba_jobs, user_jobs or all_jobs once a job is submitted.

Good Luck
