Need help with first Procedure

Hello All,
 I am working up some PL/SQL to correct a mistake on a table I loaded. I decided to make it as a stored procedure just to get to know how to create and call them. When I try to run the script to create it I get the error:

LINE/COL ERROR

-------- -----------------------------------------------------------------
17/3     PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
18/7     PLS-00417: unable to resolve "REC_ADD_ASSOC.SECTION_NUMBER" as a
         column

I have looked at my books and examples I have had from classes, but, can' t figure out the problem. It looks to be something in my cursor loop, I'm guessing the record_name variable...one book says not to declare it since its scope is limited to the loop, but, Oracle: The complete reference has it declared. I have tried it both ways, but, I get the same error. Could anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? (The spacing is different in my example, I compressed it a little for the post).

Here is the code:

create or replace procedure correct_add_assoc (x_book_number IN number) IS

        cursor c_add_assoc is
                SELECT 
                a.book_book_number,a.book_book_pub_date,a.section_number,
                a.page_number,a.listing_number,a.individual_type
                FROM address_associations a
                WHERE a.book_book_number = x_book_number
                FOR UPDATE OF a.section_number,a.page_number,a.listing_number;

                v_section address_associations.section_number%TYPE;
                v_page address_associations.page_number%TYPE;
                 v_listing address_associations.listing_number%TYPE;

BEGIN
        FOR rec_add_assoc IN c_add_assoc LOOP
                v_section := rec_add_assoc.section_number;
                v_page := rec_add_assoc.page_number;
                v_listing := rec_add_assoc.listing_number;

                UPDATE address_associations
                SET rec_add_assoc.section_number = v_page, 
                rec_add_assoc.page_number = v_listing,
                rec_add_assoc.listing_number = v_section
                WHERE CURRENT OF c_add_assoc;

        END LOOP;
commit;
        

END;
/

Any help greatly appreciated!!
