Please post DDL, so that people do not have to guess what the keys, 
constraints, Declarative Referential Integrity, data types, etc. in 
your schema are. Sample data is also a good idea, along with clear 
specifications.  It is very hard to debug code when you do not let us 
see it. 
 
In many years of writing SQL, I have seldom found a need for a cursor. 
They usually run 1-2 orders of magnitude slwoer than a relational 
solution. 
 
When someone uses one, it is generally becasue they are mimicing a 
magnetic tape file system, and probably violating the basic principle 
of a tiered architecture that display is done in the front end and 
never in the back end.  This a more basic programming principle than 
just SQL and RDBMS. 
 
Finally, id_position is not an ISO-11179 data element name and it makes 
no sense.  Identifier of what? Position of what?  You have two 
adjectives without a noun.  But I bet you mant it to be PHYSICAL 
location because you are mimicing a magnetic tape file system, instead 
of using SQL for an RDBMS. 
 
What is your real problem?  Show us and perhaps we can help you.
