First of all : it is very well known that all subjects of the Evil Empire and it's accomplishes never ever read any manuals. So they follow similar procedures when they start using Oracle. They don't read the Oracle concepts manual, they don't read the chapters on managing user in the Oracle Servers Adminstrators manual (HINT!) and they don't ever use the Sql reference manual, because they are under this misguided conception you need to use stored procedures for everything.
In Oracle this is part of just *ordinary* sql, and you won't ever learn Oracle by continuing to hack away and dump all your problems in this newsgroup, just to annoy many of it's members. So, as for the abovementioned manuals: Please start reading them!!!! Now!!!!!!!!!
