Not directly. What you need is to create a pipe using the DBMS_PIPE package, and also create a listener process that runs as a seperate process within the operating system. Send a message from the stored procedure down the pipe, and have the listener read the message and perform the appropriate action. Received on Wed Aug 16 1995 - 00:00:00 CEST
