Re: [Fwd: PL/SQL - Commits in a update cursor]

According to documentation on ORA-01002:

"...an attempt was made to FETCH from an active set after all records have been fetched."

Since the PL/SQL cursor loop fetches implicitly, and you are likely using a SELECT FOR UPDATE statement to perform the update, the commit after the fetch is illegal. I don't know of a way to do it in the manner you provided. You would have better luck explicitly performing the FETCH yourself by opening the cursor yourself and so on...
