Re: Bug in move 0

Seems MOVE 0 moves to the end of the cursor. The FETCH manual says:

SQL92 allows one to repetatively retrieve the cur-
sor at its "current position" using the syntax

FETCH RELATIVE 0 FROM cursor

Postgres does not currently support this notion; in
fact the value zero is reserved to indicate that
all rows should be retrieved and is equivalent to
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
specifying the ALL keyword. If the RELATIVE key-
word has been used, the Postgres assumes that the
user intended SQL92 behavior and returns this error
message.
