Hi,
If you are working from forms, then try using the ORA_FFI package. There should be a demo in the forms demos directory with a form called FFIGEN which will set up the plsql package to do this.
With Oracle8 you can call c functions in libraries direct from the database, but you have to get a DBA to set up the external procedure calling system.
Both are explained in the relevant manuals.
Yours,
Clint.
