external function in awk

Hi all, I have a basic doubt. Is there any way to use external
functions (i.e. functions not defined in AWK), in AWK.

I have a shell script in which I'm using a AWK snippet. In this
snippet I'm calling a function defined in the shell script. But the AWK
snippet is not working. I figured that this problem was due to the use
of external function in AWK.

Is there any way to solve this tell me how i can do it .

Please Help !
