only the owner of an object can grant/revoke object privileges (this is why
roles are such a good idea)

connect as the owner of the object and you will have certain success

(the same is not true for system privileges)

Hi,

You should be able to find out which account granted the priveleges by
looking in the dba_tab_privs table.

Some user accounts have been created some time ago and we have just
found out that they were given privileges they should not have.
However, I have no idea which account was used to create them and when
I use a DBA account to revoke these privileges I get the following
message: "ORA-01927: cannot REVOKE privileges you did not grant"

Any idea how to revoke these accesses?
