    Question

    I have a cursor that ive given an alias for one of its columns:
    cursor cur is
    select sum(debit) - sum(credit) rem_bal, emp_no
    from balance
    group by emp_no

    Now, when i come to use that cursor like so:
    for i in cur loop
    if i.rem_bal>0 then
    ....
    end if;
    end loop;
    I get errors when i use rem_bal as a column from the cursor
    But, so how can i reference that first column from the cursor using an alias, and what if i didnt use an alias, how then?
    Peace
