Oracle-L: RE: possible to dynamicly connect to a different user in pl/sql?

My guess is that 'connect' is a sql*plus command (rather than a pl/sql command) & so wouldn't work with execute immediate.

But maybe you could break out the portions of your code that need to run as a different user into a separate package, owned by that user?

I doubt it... but this could save me from coding it into a unix script and keeping all my code in my package. I tried

execute immediate 'connect user/password; and it failed.

is this doable?
