AFAIR(emember), Forms is OLE enabled, correct? In that case you should make sure your forms references the Outlook type library, create an object variable pointing to the Outlook object, and the rest is a Microsoft issue. Of course, this is a client solution.
For a server solution you need either to use dbms_pipe (checkout the website of Thomas Kyte for details) or the external procedure mechanism (Oracle 8 and beyond)

Hth,
