Cursor Functions (Transact-SQL)

[!INCLUDE SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance FabricSQLDB]

These scalar functions return information about cursors:

• @@CURSOR_ROWS
• @@FETCH_STATUS
• CURSOR_STATUS

All cursor functions are nondeterministic. In other words, these functions do not always return the same results each time they execute, even with the same set of input values. See Deterministic and Nondeterministic Functions for more information about function determinism.
