Cursors on sys_tables have always been a little iffy. I like to create the proper number of temp tables, using column names other than sys_whatever. Use SELECT...INTOs to populate the tables from the sys tables.
Declare your cursor on the temp tables. Processing should be faster too. -- Dennis McGrath mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Productivity Tools for R:Base Programmers http://www.enteract.com/~mcgrath/dennis -- Full time consultant with: SQL Resources Group Steve Hartmann Oak Park, IL mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: INTRO rbase-l ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: UNSUBSCRIBE rbase-l ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: http://www.mail-archive.com/rbase-l%40sonetmail.com/
