    Hi,

    Is it possible to call a host OS application(such as notepad) from DBMS_JOB in oracle.

    The second parameter in DBMS_JOB runs PL/SQL code,
    you can put a procedure, and if a procedure runs host
    OS applications, you can do it with DBMS_JOB. I'm not
    sure if procedures run host OS applications. I don't think
    so.
