Help required for storage management

Question

Hi,
I want that for each and every distinct row the columns value of that particular row should be stored in specific variables.
Eg:
table 1:
Name add telephone_number
a qw123 2323423545
b vsdfv34 3454645645
c wew222 8888867675
Result:
for row1:
variable1: a , variable2: qw123 , variable3: 2323423545
for row2:
variable1: b , variable2: vsdfv34 , variable3: 3454645645
for row3:
variable1: c , variable2: wew222 , variable3: 8888867675
Please tell me the query

Simple answer: no. After fixing some typos
DECLARE
   v_name    table_name.NAME%TYPE;
   v_add     table_name.ADD%TYPE;
   v_phone   table_name.phone%TYPE;
   v_count   NUMBER;
BEGIN
   SELECT COUNT (*)
     INTO v_count
     FROM table_name;
   FOR i IN 1 .. v_count
   LOOP
     SELECT NAME, ADD, phone
INTO v_name, v_add, v_phone
FROM table_name;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('The record is '|| v_name '||'v_add'||'v_phone');
   END LOOP;
END;You will still have the problem, that the SELECT I marked as bold will return all the rows into your variables - which will not work. Don't know what you'll expect from the SELECT Count(*) statement, but that and the loop won't automagically select an individual record.
Like I said in my last post: you have to use cursors. Maybe it's time to take a look at the developer guide on otn.oracle.com?
