rawbee, yeah i am absolutely agree with you that by using the cursor we have to sacrifice performance. But in some cases, instead of going into Complex T-sql query and sub-query we can use cursor.

Cursor is generally consider to be 'sauteni aama ko chora' among DBA/Developer' and everybody tries to avoid it as far as possible although it might save your life some time . But Instead of going into your complex code which you posted above. I think we can use cursor and write much simpler code by using  INFORMATION_SCHEMA system view. isn't it?
