Calling a procedure in a package requires a different syntax from calling a procedure. The OP was just making sure there wasn't a problem from Crystal. A perfectly reasonable concern.
If you don't know what a package is then you'd best find your way
to http://tahiti.oracle.com and
http://www.psoug.org/reference/packages.html and learn about them.
There is almost no excuse for writing a stored procedure in Oracle. If your code isn't in a package you should have to justify why.
