>I have a routine where the application gets (via SQL select) records into one cursor from one table, then into another cursor from another table, and then again into the 3rd one. For each cursor I use value of SYS(2015). Since the SQL Select time from one cursor to another may take a second or two or could be less than a second. Can I rely that each value of SYS(2015) is unique if it is called within less than a second?

I am not sure what exactly you want to achieve, but selecting ... INTO CURSOR TEMP for example, will automatically assign random names (presumably based on sys(2015)) to the underlying temporary table created for the cursor. For the cursor as seen from your program, I would prefer to assign consecutive names, like MyCursor001, MyCursor002, etc., or MyCursor1, MyCursor2, etc. - that would make it easier to follow-up. These names won't conflict with the same names used by another user, since the underlying temporary tables.
