That's great, but just so that the question will not reappear any time soon with different database object, take heed to those who said that you had to grant SELECT *directly* to the *user* owning your procedure - stored procedures do NOT inherit privileges from roles, NO roles are active when stored procedure is compiled or executed (unless it's authid current_user in 8i+.)
