SQL statement with a cursor in it

Hi there,

I have an SQL Server script that is briefly something as following:

Declare someting ...



TABLE #tempTable

......



DECLARE



db_cursor CURSOR

FOR

select.....



.....







FETCH NEXT FROM db_cursor INTO .....

WHILE

@@FETCH_STATUS = 0



BEGIN

insert

into #tempTable....

END

......



It is working well in SQL Server.

When it comes to executing it in QV, I have tried to put a "sql" expression at the beginning and ";" at the and of the QV script. QV does not realize it. For info, I dont have a permission to create a stored procedure in the database.

Any solution? Thanks in advance.

It is an old post I konw but I am curious if you figured this out? Has anyone used cursors in qlikview scripts?

putting any complicated SQL inside an exec usually does the trick...

exec ('    T-SQL   ')

Don't forget to double any quotes inside the script.
