I don't believe that Oracle 7.x provides bi-directional cursors, which is what you seem to be asking. I think that Oracle 8.x does, however. On the other hand, if you are utilizing the OCI library, then you can fetch an array of rows at a time, which you can navigate (using C or C++) in either direction, up to the limit of the array you fetched.
