You can Declare Cursor either in Working-storage section or
in Procedure division. It is not executable
OPEN CURSOR is executable ( here it creates Result), Fetch
rows within loop then close cursor.

Answer / shailendra
cursor
declare cursor : it is not exectable statement it take
place in working storage section,it just keep the cursor
on that place where the condition is satisfied which is
define in the quary.
executable statement define in procedure division:
1> open cursor : it define now which cursor open to retrive
data, we can define many cursor at a time.
2> fetch cursor:this statement fetch the record which is
satisfy the condition
3> close cursor : it close the cursor
now if we want to fetch the same record again then it must
to go through open cursor statement again.

Answer / mani
the first one is correct i.e. when the open cursor statement
gets executed, the results table is created for the query in
declare cursor statement.
after that when fetch is done it is actually retrieved one
by one from the results table.
