    I have recently started Oracle script's and have run into an error with my PL/SQL. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks,

    DECLARE
    v_userid VARCHAR2 (9) DEFAULT 'User1';
    v_passwrd VARCHAR2 (9) DEFAULT 'User1';

    BEGIN

    CREATE USER v_userid
    DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS
    TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
    IDENTIFIED BY v_passwrd ;
    GRANT viewA viewB viewC TO v_userid;

    ALTER USER v_userid DEFAULT ROLE roleA roleB roleC FROM DBA_USERS
    WHERE USERNAME <> 'SYS' AND USERNAME <> 'SYSTEM';

    END;
    /

    DECLARE
    /*
    || Procedure for dynamically executing SQL statements,
    || needed to execute DDL commands.
    */
    PROCEDURE execute_sql_statement (sql_statement IN VARCHAR2)
    IS
    cursor_handle INTEGER;
    BEGIN
    cursor_handle := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
    DBMS_SQL.PARSE
    (cursor_handle, sql_statement, DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
    DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR(cursor_handle);
    END execute_sql_statement;

    BEGIN
    execute_sql_statement
    ('CREATE USER user1 identified by user1
    default tablespace users
    temporary tablespace temp');

    and so on for other statements...

    END;

    if you are using 8i it will be much easier to do this:

    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE USER '||v_userid||'
    DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS
    TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
    IDENTIFIED BY '||v_passwrd||' ;
    GRANT viewA viewB viewC TO '||v_userid;

    This is true - actually, we're switching over to execute immediate for new coding, but I thought the execute sql statement would be clearer because of the comments I snipped out of one of our scripts.
