User Setup in Oracle 8i Lite

Question

I installed Oracle 8i lite 4.0 on Win98. I used SYSTEM user to
create additional User using SQL*Plus. I assigned DDL Role to
user and gave all grants (select, delete, update) on all objects
of POLITE database to the new user. But when login as new user,
I can not select data from the sample tables of POLITE. Like:
SELECT * FROM EMP;
It gives the message as object does not exists. Any help ?
Thanks

Answer 1

I saw the table EMP is under the owner of SYSTEM.
Try to use 'Select * from system.EMP;'
