Hi,

I work on Oracle 9.2 and want to create new user add him a role with grant execute on specified package.
If I thing right with that option if in specified package will be 'drop table' statement new user will have rights to execute drop.
Is there any way to block dropping inside package ??

Thanks for any help

Thans for answer...

Then what I can call with execute grant on package?
- can I call a another package procedure from procedure of granted package?
- can I call procedure inserting data to table?

What exactly you want??

You can grant "Execute" privilege to another user to run packages or procedures

Ummmm - Yes.
The user won't be able issue a direct drop command but they will be able to execute the procedure and have it run the drop.

use invokers rights - see the link I posted.
or move the code you don't want them to run into a different package.

It is not clear if you want the user (which one?) be able to drop table or not with the procedure (why the package can drop a table? which one?)
So you don't explain the ROOT problem, just the problem you have to implement what you think at the point you are.
Maybe (most likely) the former steps (design) is wrong.
