    Hello,

    I am trying to create an ap user that just has executable rights to the owner schema's objects. Granting select/execute rights to the objects seems to have worked well (and creating synonyms).

    I have granted the new user execute rights (that is all you can grant) on the types that the schema owner has, and have created synonyms for them too... but we get the error "ORA-04043 " error that it does not exist.

    Do I need to create the types as this other user or can we grant rights to types owned by another user?

    I use Oracle 8.1.6.1.

    Thanks,
    Nirasha

    You can create but you cannot use synonyms for types. You have to use the schemaname: schema.typename

    Thanks,

    After going through Oracle forums on metalink, I found:

    "The documentation states that we don't allow synonyms for object types. This can't be changed because synonyms are supposed to be an alias for the table, view, snapshot, sequence, procedure, function or package. "

    Thanks again,
