• Try something like: rem This script performs dynamic granting of tables,views,sequences to rem users/roles/PUBLIC. This script needs to be run as the owner rem of the objects you are granting to.

rem s_user - List of users/roles to grant to. Can be comma seperated.

set verify off
set pause off
set doc off
set heading off

accept s_user prompt 'Enter USERNAME,ROLE, or PUBLIC to grant to : '

prompt

show user

prompt 'Granting SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE only to &s_user' prompt

DECLARE

         l_sql varchar2(254);
         cursor_id integer;
         result integer;

         l_target_user varchar2(80) := '&s_user';

cursor get_tab is
     select table_name from user_tables ;

cursor get_view is
     select view_name from user_views;

cursor get_seq is
     select sequence_name from user_sequences;

BEGIN cursor_id:=dbms_sql.open_cursor;

/* Tables first */

FOR tab_rec in get_tab LOOP

    l_sql := 'grant select,insert,update,delete on '||tab_rec.table_name||' to '||l_target_user;

    dbms_sql.parse(cursor_id,l_sql,1);
    result := dbms_sql.execute(cursor_id);

END LOOP; /* Views */

FOR view_rec in get_view LOOP

    l_sql := 'grant select,insert,update,delete on '||view_rec.view_name||' to '||l_target_user;

    dbms_sql.parse(cursor_id,l_sql,1);
    result := dbms_sql.execute(cursor_id);

END LOOP; /* Sequences */

FOR seq_rec in get_seq LOOP

    l_sql := 'grant select on '||seq_rec.sequence_name||' to '||l_target_user;

    dbms_sql.parse(cursor_id,l_sql,1);
    result := dbms_sql.execute(cursor_id);

END LOOP; dbms_sql.close_cursor(cursor_id);

END;

• add loops for each type (e.g., packages, etc.)
