# Cursor Functions (Transact-SQL)
[!INCLUDE[tsql-appliesto-ss2008-asdb-xxxx-xxx-md](../../includes/tsql-appliesto-ss2008-asdb-xxxx-xxx-md.md)]

These scalar functions return information about cursors:
  
|||  
|-|-|  
|[@@CURSOR_ROWS](../../t-sql/functions/cursor-rows-transact-sql.md)|[CURSOR_STATUS](../../t-sql/functions/cursor-status-transact-sql.md)|  
|[@@FETCH_STATUS](../../t-sql/functions/fetch-status-transact-sql.md)||  
  
All cursor functions are nondeterministic. In other words, these functions do not always return the same results each time they execute, even with the same set of input values. See [Deterministic and Nondeterministic Functions](../../relational-databases/user-defined-functions/deterministic-and-nondeterministic-functions.md) for more information about function determinism.
