Hi Listers,

Can we call operating system command from store procedure or trigger ? I have created the following simple store procedure :

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE PROCTES is
begin
HOST('ls');
end;

But I got the error :
Line # = 3 Column # = 6 Error Text = PLS-00201: identifier 'LS' must be declared
Line # = 3 Column # = 1 Error Text = PL/SQL: Statement ignored

Thanks for any clue.

Aldi
