I know how a SELECT cursor works, but INSERT/UPDATE seems voodoo to me. My current PostgreSQL session doesn't seem to like it too much, either. It can't parse INSERT or UPDATE after CURSOR FOR. I looked in my PostgreSQL reference book, and I don't see a thing on it. Would anyone care to elaborate on the INSERT/UPDATE cursor? I can't seem to wrap my head around how it would work, seeing as there wouldn't really be a result set to traverse, like there is with a SELECT cursor. Thanks. Colin -- Colin W.
