Jerry,
correct, you are right. So just donot pack() and you are able to make your
transaction reversible. Pack() and Zap() are for development only, they
should not be used in production. To pack a temporary table ( cursor ) is
completely overkill, just create a new cursor with the same name without
the unwanted records, cursors are  removed when your session is over.
Regards,
Koen
