T-SQL Cursor Variable..

Hello All,

Is there a T-SQL equivalent of the PL/SQL cursor rowtype datatype ?

Thanks in advance

No, but in SQL Server you should rarely want to use a cursor. 99.99% of
the time they are not a good idea.

There is in fact a cursor datatype in T-SQL, but whether it matches
the Oracle datatype I have no idea. And I have never used the cursor
datatype in T-SQL.
