Hi :
We're running into the above problem that's stumped us for 2 days now ;-( Hopefully some Powerbuilder to Oracle guru has run across something similiar before and can shed some light.
We have a fairly complex cursor, what stands out is that it's selecting from an 85 column table via Powerbuilder. 2000+ rows are processed, then it stops, returning ORA-1037 which in 7.1.4 is:

01037, 00000, "maximum cursor memory exceeded"
// *Cause: Attempting to process a complex sql statement which consumed all
// available memory of the cursor.
// *Action: Simplify the complex sql statement.

We experimented a little, and trimmed the number of columns that it processes down to 65 instead of 80+, and successfully processed 12000+ rows before it stopped again with the ORA-1037 error.
We're running PB 4.0.03 and Oracle 7.1.4. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thank you. :-)
