Reading a field from Cursor

Hi,
I have a cursor that reads a table. During the reading of the table I want
to read e "field" directly (Not usign FETCH NEXT FROM authors_cursors INTO
@.col1, @.col2).
Thanks!claude81 wrote:

You have to FETCH NEXT INTO. There is no other way.
Cursors should be a last resort.

Read only database to read-write

I have MSSQL 2000 database wich I made read only for some reason. Now I want
to make it writeable again.
I right click on the database in EM, go to options, remove the checkmark
near the 'read only', and when I click OK i get an error message wich says
that I can't take the database offline because database is in use.
How can a ReadOnly database be in use in such manner that I can't change
that? And, whas is ment by 'taking the database offline'?

msplival@.jagor.srce.hrI suggest you use the ALTER DATABASE command to change database options. One
of the possibilities it has is to throw out current users, for instance.

Yes, I agree with tiber on this, Issue the below command from Query analyzer
to make database READ_WRITE.
Alter database pubs1 set read_write with rollback immediate
(Replace pubs1 with actual database name.)
Note:
Rollback immediate option is equalent to Kill statement, it just closes all
the connected sessions. Otherwise even a read only session connected to the
database will create a block and will not allow you to change the database
options even if the database is read only.
