Additionally, if your on a team with a good PL/SQL developer they are going
to write packages and procedures for you to call.  They can then do cross
tabs, array loops and all sorts of other things that you can't do in a
regular query block, such as work with the oracle session, db user accounts,
security according to db roles - which doesn't work with a query block.

Yes, we are having a generic technical debate, and what I am saying is that
when the team setup or hierarchical setup is not ideal, separating work out
makes the project move along faster. Stored procs come into play here in
that someone can tackle this aspect while other things are being taken care
of.... That's pretty generic... Just another situation in which stored procs
are better.
