FORMS_DDL

What's the equivalent of FORMS_DDL in PL/SQL? I have tried to use DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE(proc) to execute DDL commands in vain.

All I want is to Create USers from an application. In forms I would use

DECLARE
 name varchar2(20) := 'Moses';
 pword varchar2(20) := 'nevermind'
 state varchar2(200) := 'CREATE USER '||name||' IDENTIFIED BY '||pword|| ';';

BEGIN
   FORMS_DDL(state);
END; I thought I could use DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE(state) but it does not work for me.

Advise!!
