 Hi,

Can you anyone explain me what is use of HOST_COMMAND ? To my understanding, it is DB object to execute Host command ( Unix command in case OS is unix ) from PL/SQL ?

I tried to copy the file using HOST_COMMAND but no success. Can anyone tell me how to find out whether OS command is executed successfully or not ?

Howdy, Stranger!
