     This is incorrect. PL/SQL handles DML only, even in V2.0.14 under Oracle 7. While it is supposed to handle all DML, there are a number of bugs in V1, the most serious of which is lack of support for START WITH ... CONNECT BY. The bug appears to be fixed in V2. What is DCL? My SQL manual only talks about DML and DDL.
