cursor questions

Hi,

Im not sure if this is right place to ask this question, but here goes.
I have have declared a cursor with an query within a transaction. I
need to get the current position of the cursor and also the number of
rows it represents. Is there any way to do this? I was thinking i could
do "SELECT count(cursor_column) FROM cursor_name", but i get a relation
does not exist error.

thanks.
