DBD::Oracle and DBMS_STATS

[Steve Main]

Hello list,

I'm having trouble finding a way to run DBMS_STATS from perl.....

$sth1 = $dbh1->prepare("DBMS_STATS.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS(ownname => 'USER', 
                                                       cascade => TRUE,
                                                       options =>
'GATHER')");

$sth1->execute();

Is there another way to run package/procdures ?

thanks for your time

Steve
