Local and Global Cursors – SQL Server Tutorial

Local and Global Cursors  :-

  • If cursor is local then the cursor can access with in the program only.
  • If cursor is global then the cursor can be declared in one progress can be used in another program.

Global is default

Program (I) :-

             Declare c1 cursor global

                      For select ename,sal,comm from emp.

               Declare  @ename varchar(20)

                Declare @sal smallmoney  @comm smallmoney.

                Declare @totsal smallmoney.

                            Open c1

                           Fetch next from c1 into @ename,@sal,@comm

                            While (@@fetch_status=0)

                                 Begin

                              Set @totsal=@sal+isnull(@comm,0)

                              Print  @ename+’earns’+cast(@total as varchar)

                         Fetch next from c1 into @ename,@sal,@comm

                          End.

                             Close c1.

Note  :-

Program(II)  :-  Calculating   annual salary using cursor c1:

                                        Declare  @ename varchar(20)

                                         Declare   @sal smallmoney,@comm smallmoney

                                         Declare @totsal smallmoney

                                              Opn c1

                                      Fetch next from c1 into @ename,@sal,@comm

                                       While (@@fetch_status=0)

                                         Begin

                                          Set @totsal=(@sal+isnull(@comm,0))*12

                                          Print  @ename+’earns’+cast(@totsal as varchar)

                                        Fetch next from c1 into @ename,@sal,@comm

                                           End

                                         Deallocate c1.

                       Set @tbil=0

                    Open c1

    Fetch  next from c1 into @icode,@descrip,@rate,@qty

                    While (@@fetch_status=0)

                   Begin

                   Set @value=@qty*@rate

       Set   @tbill=@tbill+@value

          Print  cast (@icode as varchar)+’ ’+@descrip+

                 ‘ ‘+cast(@rate as varchar) +’ ‘+cast+@qty

                          As varchar)+cast(@value as varchar)

                   Fetch next from c1 into @icode,@descrip @rate@qty.
