Dear DBA Gurus,

How do I spool output of a select statement to a file through stored procedure. The stored procedure should take the directory and path of the file to be spooled to on the client machine. I know we can do this using UTL_FILE package. But I don't want to write to a file in Oracle Database server machine rather I want to write the output to a file in client machine. Please note that I want to do this through a Pl/Sql procedure or a pl/sql program so that the procedure can be called from the front end which is Java/C++. How do I do this? Any help in this regard will be duly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Ranganath
