I've a table T like that
X Y

---

A NULL
NULL C
D E
F NULL My Problem.
I want to replace values equal to NULL by the value which follow them In my case, I'll get.
A C
D C
D E
F NULL
I used a curosr but how to make a dynamic update?

according to me,It would be like

---

.........
for i in 1..sql%rowcount-1 loop
if X is null
update T set X = select X from T
where rownum = i+1;
end loop;
..........
