This precedure is not consistent!

Question

I have this precedure, but it is not consistent, the idea is if the count
Coming from the get_the_count_cur is = 1 then I update the
Table with the result of get_the_race_cur otherwise if the
Count s > 1 then I update the table with T, it works but it is not consistent.

Answer 1

I know and I try that too, 1 without the quotes, it does not work for some reason in some records.
Please notice that the count is do in one cursor and the data to update is do in another cursor...
I know I try this technique before and it worked, but in this case it is not, unfortunatly i am not at work, so I don't have access to teh DB, so I can not send you
an example of the record that is not being update, basicly that record has a count of 1 and it is also retrieve in the other cursor, so it should be updating
IF v_count1 = 1
THEN
UPDATE saturn.spbpers
SET spbpers_ethn_code = v_race_cde,
spbpers_activity_date = SYSDATE,
spbpers_confirmed_re_cde = 'Y',
spbpers_confirmed_re_date = SYSDATE
WHERE spbpers_pidm = v_gorp_pidm
AND (spbpers_ethn_code != 'H');
ELSIF v_count1 > 1
THEN
UPDATE saturn.spbpers
SET spbpers_ethn_code = 'T',
spbpers_activity_date = SYSDATE,
spbpers_confirmed_re_cde = 'Y',
spbpers_confirmed_re_date = SYSDATE
WHERE spbpers_pidm = v_pidm
AND (spbpers_ethn_code != 'H');
END IF;
commit;
