There certainly is.  ORACLE for 4th Dimension is published by ORACLE
Corp., and it works both with local ORACLE databases and remote databases
via SQL*Net.  It consists of a single 4D external, to which you can
pass SQL commands with embedded variables.  Data is returned in arrays,
which you can them mess with all you want.

Give ORACLE a call for pricing, etc.
