Hi All,

I have a program, where I collect info into 1 cursor (fstcursor), then use that cursor to update a different cursor (mncursor). At the moment, I have to do a scan of fstcursor, and update mncursor within that scan. With 100,000+ records, this takes a while. Is there a better way to do this?

I have a lot of these updates in the program, plus some fors. At the moment, the program takes well over 16 minutes to run (still has not finished this run) with 100,000 to 110,000 records.

I thought maybe getting rid of scans might help, but I wanted to ask you, UT members, first. :)

Thanks,
Beth
