I don't think execute is an Oracle keyword. As far as I am aware, the
two syntaxes for calling stored procedures from something other than
PL/SQL have always been:
begin
... -- PL/SQL Block, which can call procedures
end;
or
select myfunc(args) from dual
which will only work if myfunc is a function and returns a valid SQL datatype.
