<code class="command">MOVE</code> repositions a cursor without retrieving any data.
<code class="command">MOVE</code> works exactly like the <code class="command">FETCH</code>
command, except it only positions the cursor and does not return rows.
</p><p>
The parameters for the <code class="command">MOVE</code> command are identical to
those of the <code class="command">FETCH</code> command; refer to
<a class="xref" href="sql-fetch.html" title="FETCH"><span class="refentrytitle">FETCH</span></a>
for details on syntax and usage.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.157.7"><h2>Outputs</h2><p>
On successful completion, a <code class="command">MOVE</code> command returns a command
tag of the form
</p><pre class="screen">
MOVE <em class="replaceable"><code>count</code></em>
</pre><p>
The <em class="replaceable"><code>count</code></em> is the number
of rows that a <code class="command">FETCH</code> command with the same parameters
would have returned (possibly zero).
