Connection in stored procedure

Question

Hi
I'm trying to create a stored procedure that creates few SYNONYM's and then give the user select permisiions on those SYNONYM's.
The problem is that I need to connect as System to grant the select permissions.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE DAL_Update_Gazetteer_Link(
gazDataSource_ IN VARCHAR2,
gazSchema_ IN VARCHAR2,
gazSystemUser_ IN VARCHAR2,
gazSystemPassword_ IN VARCHAR2,
pmsSchema_ IN VARCHAR2,
errMsg OUT VARCHAR2
IS
sqlq VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
sqlq := '';
-- Synonyms.
sqlq := 'CREATE OR REPLACE SYNONYM LPI FOR ' || gazSchema_ || '.LPI';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sqlq;
CONNECT systemUser/user@service.
-- Select Grants on tables
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'GRANT SELECT ON '|| gazSchema_ || '.BLPU TO ' || pmsSchema_;
COMMIT;
end;
END DAL_Update_Gazetteer_Link;
Above is the basic stored proc I cannot get the connection to work, the create SYNONYM's works but the Grant will not run.
Any ideas very welcome as I'm new to Oarcle. 10g

Answer 1

So basically we have a schema with the national property data in it, we have another schema that does not and never will need the whole data. So we have an application that can import any property into the second schema that is of intrest.
So we have synonym's that in the second schema can view and get the data if required.
The problem is that the client can and does want and need to change the schema which has the main national property data in and therefore breaks any of the synonym's connections.
So we have a settings tool that should allow them to reset synonym's to the new schema.
I hope this helps explain the situation, I'm not sure how it can help with my problem as I'm not the owner or designer of the schemas I'm just writting altering a setting application. To allow them to do what they want to do. Right or Wrong, Risky or not it needs to be done.
So any suggestions would be very grateful.
