Bulk collect in pl/sql table SOLVED

Question

Hi All,
TYPE r_nparameter IS RECORD( col1 tab.col1%TYPE, col2 tab.col2%TYPE);
TYPE t_no_seq IS TABLE OF r_nparameter INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
the t_no_seq is not initialized.
My Question is
If we use t_itn_seq, in a BULK COLLECT operation in a select statement as...
SELECT col1, col2 BULK COLLECT INTO t_no_seq
and there is no record found for this query and exception is taken care of....thereafter we use this table in for loop as..
FOR icount IN 1..t_no_seq.COUNT
will this count raise any exception?
Best Regards.

It's not difficult to test this yourself...
