create a procedure belonging to the third_party_app schema owner that grants access. e.g.
create procedure third_party_app_user.grant_priv   (table_name_in in varchar2, privileges_in in varchar2, grantee_in varchar2) as
begin

   execute immediate 'grant ' || privileges_in || ' on ' || table_name_in || ' to ' || grantee_in ; end ;
/
execute third_party_app_user.grant_priv ('WORK_TABLE', 'SELECT', 'OTHER_USER')

-----Original Message-----

I have an interesting problem at hand - we have a request from a developer that ask to access some tables owned by a user generated by third party app. Since I don't have the password for this user and system/sys do not have admin option on these tables, I can't grant select to the developer. Changing password for this app can be tricky and will be used as last resort. My question is is there anything else I can do to meet this request?
