RE: PL/SQL proc calls to a remote DB via DB link

If you create a synonym  

create myPkgR for user.pkgR_at_dblinkR <mailto:user.pkgR_at_dblinkR> ;  

Then you can use  

MyValR MyPkgR.typeR;  

This is much cleaner and less confusing ...

Listers:

You have 2 DBs, "L" local, "R" remote. From within a PL/SQL package or procedure on the *local* DB, is it legal to: declare a local variable using a *remote* type:

MyVar_L userR.pkgR.typeR_at_dblinkR;

or call a *remote* procedure:

userR.procR(...)@dblinkR;

If it is legal to reference remote pkg/procs, is my syntax correct? If it is not, how do I accomplish this without having someone login to the remote DB?
