Have you looked at a combination of the Net::FTP and DBI/DBD::Oracle modules for perl?
In my experience, very few tasks need Pro*C unless you are writing MSVC stuff, and THEN
you could use the Tk widgets to create GUI code for X and win32.

The main advantage is development and debugging time is cut.

Disadvantage: You don't get to hide your dirty laundry ;-)
