Urgent query related to execute immediate in a procedure.

Question

hi,
I want to create a table in the production database,within a procedure so I write query like:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST
IS
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE PE.BUD_VS_REV AS SELECT * FROM WH.WH_BUD_VS_REVNM1';
END;
but this is not working within the procedure it gives the
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges.
I already have asked to DBA he said that this user has all previlidges.
one more thing if I write this query in an annonymous block like:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE PE.BUD_VS_REV AS SELECT * FROM WH.WH_BUD_VS_REVNM1';
END;
its working well.
can any buddy tellme what can be the reason,actually.
Thanx
Ritesh!

Answer 1

Look this example:
DBA >> CREATE USER LEO IDENTIFIED BY LEO
2 /
User created.
DBA >> GRANT CREATE SESSION TO LEO
2 /
Grant succeeded.
LEO >> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST
2 IS
3 BEGIN
4 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE PE.BUD_VS_REV AS SELECT * FROM WH.WH_BUD_VS
_REVNM1';
5 END;
6 /
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
DBA >> GRANT CREATE ANY PROCEDURE TO LEO
2 /
Grant succeeded.
LEO >> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST
2 IS
3 BEGIN
4 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE PE.BUD_VS_REV AS SELECT * FROM WH.WH_BUD_VS
_REVNM1';
5 END;
6 /
Procedure created.
