    Problem of cursors

    Hi Friends
    I want to insert/update data from one table to another table which is on different server.
    There are two server having one database on each.
    One databse is clientdb another is Jcastdb.
    I have made a database link from clientdb to jcastdb say jcastdb.
    I have written a Procedure to update data from clientdb to jcastdb.But when I am executing it, getting error Invalid cursor.
    I am new to Pl/Sql can you help me to solve it.Code of procedure is below
    *****************************
    create or replace procedure updatejcastdb is
    no1 number;
    no2 number;
    var1 varchar2(70);
    var2 varchar2(70);
    cursor c1 is select * from tblcompany;
    cursor c2 is select * from tblcompany@jcastdb;
    begin
    open c2;
    open c1;
    loop
    fetch c2 into no2,var2;
    exit when c2% notfound;
    loop
    fetch c1 into no1,var1;
    exit when c1% notfound;
    if no2=no1 then
    update tblcompany@jcastdb
    set companyname= var1
    where companyid=no2;
    end if;
    end loop;
    close c1;
    commit;
    end loop;
    end updatejcastdb;

    Qualify your tablename with schema name as follows:

    cursor c2 is select * from schemaName.tblcompany@jcastdb;

    Why do u write PL/SQL to transfer data.

    Use Import/Export utility or use COPY command or use any other tool like informatica

    Can you try to use the implicit for loop?
    Instead of open c1;loop;fetch c1 into...;close c1;end loop;,
    you can use for i in c1;loop...end loop;
