Hi Scott,
In the PL/SQL User's Guide And Reference, page 4-2 is the following: "...PL/SQL supports all SQL data manipulation commands (except EXPLAIN PLAN), transaction control commands, functions, pseudocolumns, and operators.
However, PL/SQL does NOT support data definition commands such as CREATE, session control commands such as SET ROLE, or the system control command ALTER SYSTEM."

ALTER TRIGGER falls into the data definition category (see page 4-4 of the

Oracle7 SQL Language Reference Manual).

Hope that helps,
