I have a question regarding cursors. I have a report that gathers info from 6 different tables. The query was slow, so I decided to break up the query and create 3 separate cursors. I now need to combine those cursors into a single cursor to send back to my report. Is this possible?

I also tried to do a subquery within my main cursor select statement (fieldxx as (select xxx from abc where xx = xx), but either this approach isn't possible or my syntax is wrong. Any ideas?

I've also tried to do a separate update command after the main cursor is complete. (update cursor1 set xx = xx where table.field = cursor1.field). Similar problems as the last paragraph. Is this valid?

Sorry for the length of the post. Being new to PL/SQL, can anyone point me in the most logical direction?

Thanks for your help.

Bill
