Firing Stored Procedure Into Database At Runtime

Question

HI All,
I need a help !. I have created a stored procedure that creates a dynamic SP at runtime depending upon certain values stored in my database. Now I want that as soon as the dynamic SP is written in a flat file on the database server it should be compiled into database.
What I am doing right now is :
step1: create a SP
step2: fetch values from database
step3: create a string from it which actually contains syntax for creating another SP
step4: open a new file "test.sql" on the database server
step5: write this string into "test.sql"
step6: close the file "test.sql"
step7: exit SP
This creates a file named "test.sql" on oracle database server.
Now my requirement is to include another step after step6 say
step6.1: compile "test.sql" into the database.
Does any one have idea how to achieve this using SP.
Thanks & regards

I don't know which solution you're attempting, but here goes.
You cannot build a procedure using objects (e.g. tables, views) etc when you have been granted rights to them via role. Similarly you cannot use execute immediate to use a system privilege (e.g. CREATE PROCEDURE) if you have been granted it through a role (e.g. CONNECT).
In both cases the relevant solution is to get the grantor (table owner, dba user) to grant the privilege to your account by name.
