No way, it should return 3 rows!

Wait, does that mean an error could happen?

Definitely 2 rows returned!

I think the FETCH will return 1 row, right?

The cursor starts at the first row, so moving forward 2 goes to the third row.

I’m confused about the MOVE statement. Does it actually skip the rows or just position the cursor? I hope I remember this correctly!

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to calculate the number of rows returned after moving the cursor. I think it might be 1 row returned here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about FETCH returning rows based on the current position of the cursor.

I think the cursor starts at the first row, so moving forward 2 should put it at the third row, right?

This is a good test of understanding cursor operations. I'll need to carefully trace the cursor position and fetch behavior to determine the correct number of rows returned. Shouldn't be too difficult if I think it through methodically.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. The cursor positioning and fetch logic seems a bit complex. I'll need to walk through it carefully step-by-step to figure out the right answer.

Okay, I think I've got this. The MOVE FORWARD 2 statement positions the cursor on the third row, and the FETCH FORWARD ALL statement should return the remaining 1 row. The answer is C.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the cursor MOVE and FETCH statements. I'll need to review how cursor positioning and fetching work to determine the correct number of rows returned.

This looks like a tricky SQL question involving cursor operations. I'll need to carefully read through the details and think through the cursor positioning and fetch behavior.

I agree with Pamella, the FETCH statement should return 1 row.
WI

Hmm, I'm not so sure. The question mentions a SCROLL CURSOR, so I'm wondering if the cursor position can be reset somehow. Maybe the answer is D?
PA
Pamella 2 years ago
I think the correct answer is B.
KI

I think the answer is C. The MOVE FORWARD 2 statement positions the cursor on the third row, and then the FETCH FORWARD ALL statement should return the remaining two rows.
KA

I believe it's A. The FETCH statement will return 0 rows because of an error in the execution.
