What do you mean by 'insert that user into a new district'? Do you mean create an oracle account?

I have an Oracle database with users in a district. Every time I have to add a new district I have to reset the password. I thought, now why don't I use Perl to just copy the users current info and insert that into the new district with the name of the district changing. What I need to do is loop through the database and find a user, insert that user into the new district, find next user, make sure that user is not already in the new district to prevent duplicates, insert user into new district changing the district information. There will be exceptions but I think I can handle those if I can get started on the first part. My Perl and DBI skills are not quite up to this...so help would be appreciated.
