Hi!
I hope, i understood right...
Do you want to use a cursor?
Do you just have one multi-line.item or a multi-record-block?
Just a example:
begin
go_item ( 'your_block.item' );
:block.item := null;
for l_rec in ( select i.invoice_Number,
                      'Invoice # || i.invoice_Number || ' .. ' || to_char ( i.invoice_date, 'dd-mon.yyyy' ) text
               from invoice i
               where ... your_condition ) loop
  if
    length ( :block.item || l_rec.text ) + 2 >= 2000
  then
     message ( 'Data exceds the max-length of 2000 characters' );
     message ( ' ' );
     return;
  end if;
  :block.item := :block.item || l_rec.text || chr(10) || chr(10);
  for l_rec_detail in ( select ddd, mmm, ccc
                        from detail
                        where invoice_number = l_rec.invoice_number ) loop
    :block.item := :block.item := 'Service ' || l_rec.detail.ddd || ' with delivery' || chr(10) ||
                                  'Service ' || l_rec.detail.mmm || ' without delivery' || chr(10) ||
                                  'Service ' || l_rec.detail.ccc || ' with maximum limit ' || chr(10);
  end loop;
  :block.item := :block.item || chr(10) || chr(10);
end loop;
