PB - Oracle DBMSPipe - ProC routine calls ...
We use this to call our tax process which is a Unix executable.
It works, but it is a pain.
Thanks,
Jason

Subject: Re: PFCSIG How to call a Unix Command or shell from PFC app
Jesus,
We have just begun to research this problem ourseleves. So what I am going
to tell you about we have not yet tested. If you have Oracle 8 you should
read about the "new features", supposedly they have added a simpler way to
call externals from within a stored procedure which can be executed. If you
have Oracle 7.x then you can use DBMS pipes which is more complex. I would
recommend talking with your DBA and if you do not have one then looking at
your database providers documentation. I hope this was a little help in
putting you on the right track. Sorry I don't have more details at this
point.

Ken,
The Unix Machine has the shell and I want to run it
from a PB app that resides in the users' PCs.
Thanks :)
