Jeff and Sivaj, thank you guys for your help.

@jeff; I understand what you said and I will keep that in mind for the next post. The reason for the WHILE LOOP is because with CURSOR it is much slower than with WHILE LOOP. The company I am contracted for advised me not to use them. I am a simple developer with not any serious developing experience. Doing this was a challenge for me but I believe I converted it correctly. Thank you.

Sivaj; Thanks for that. I appreciate it.
