Defining a field of a custom type

Hi

I have a situation where I'll have many tables that also need to store a Person's info.

Is there a way, where I create a Person table (FirstName, LastName, Address....etc etc) and then be able to create a table where I define a field to be that of Person type-table ? Like the way we do in OOP.

Thanks

Is this possible on other databases, like PostgreSQL, Oracle or MS SQL Server 2005 ?
