Each active FOR EACH and FIND NEXT loop uses one index cursor for each index the AVM is using. A cursor takes 64 bytes. If you need more index cursors, the AVM displays the following error message: 

SYSTEM ERROR: Too few index cursors. Increase -c parameter.
Note: The -c parameter has a different meaning when you connect to an ORACLE database. For more information, see Use the Oracle Data Server.
