RE: Revoking Priviledge
 
hi, It depends upon the type of privilege you are revoking. Is it object priviledge or system priviledge. There is one major difference in the revocation of object privileges and system privileges. With objects, if you revoke a privilege from a user who had been granted it previously with the with grant option,in this case  the revoke operation will affect not only the user that you are revoking the privilege from, but all other users who that user had granted privileges to will have those privileges revoked as well. Cascade revoke effect will be observed only in case of object priviledge and not with system priviledge.
