DefaultCursor Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The DefaultCursor property controls the visibility of cursors created in Transact-SQL batches.

Syntax

object
.DefaultCursor [=value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • value
    TRUE or FALSE

Data Type

Boolean

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetDefaultCursor(LPBOOL pRetVal);
HRESULT SetDefaultCursor(BOOL NewValue);

Remarks

Microsoft SQL Server cursor scope can be local, meaning visible only within the scope of a batch, or global, meaning visible to any process within the scope of the session.

If TRUE, cursors declared in a batch are created with local scope.

If FALSE, cursors declared in a batch are created with global scope.

For more information, see DECLARE CURSOR (Transact-SQL).
