Pat,  

You have two choices ...  

  1. either you log in as the schema and grant access to see selected tables This isn't possible (or is the last resort)
  2. SELECT ANY Easy, but as you mention a potential security risk

When I have limited choices with a vendor app, I'd rather not mess with vendor code without their approval (please don't confuse this to my messing around with writing code to workaround Oracle bugs, thank you).

That would let the account see ANY table in the database, wouldn't it?

grant select any table to <your developer> /  

Shouldn't this work?

Hi all -
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?  

Thanks  

Dennis
