Re: Progress 4GL running Oracle stored procedure??

Hi Fritz,

I've migrated an app from Progress to Oracle 9i and I can tell you that the Dataserver isn't specifically about stored procedures. It's more about migrating a Progress schema to an Oracle schema and sending the Progress client's requests & instructions to the database via the OCI.

Having said that, what you want to do *is* possible! The Progress 4GL has a "RUN STORED-PROCEDURE" command that allows you to execute an Oracle stored procedure via the Dataserver:

RUN STORED-PROCEDURE procedure

  [ integer-field = PROC-HANDLE ]
  [ NO-ERROR ]
  [ ( parameter [ , parameter ] ... ) ]

I'd recommend the online documentation for the Dataserver at www.progress.com, and the Progress e-mail group's servers mailing list (servers_at_peg.com), where Dataserver issues are discussed.

HTH
