how to pass a variable to an update sql statement inside a loop

hi all,

i am experiencing an error which i think an incorrect syntax for the where clause passing a variable was given. under is my code.

Code:
sqlplus -s ${USERNAME}/${PASSWORD}@${SID} << END1 >> $LOGFILE
whenever sqlerror exit
set serveroutput on size 1000000
declare
  l_rc                  varchar2(1)   := null;
  cursor c1 is
    select first_name as acct_id,
      from srtable;
begin
  dbms_output.enable(1000000);
  for i in c1 loop
         update srtable
         set appt_notes = 'N'
         where first_name = i.acct_id;
         commit;
  end loop;
END1

this is the error:
-6502 ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion

does anyone know the correct syntax for my where clause? Need help.

cubrid_prepare - Prepare a SQL statement for execution

SYNOPSIS
resource cubrid_prepare (resource $conn_identifier, string $prepare_stmt, [int $option]) DESCRIPTION
The cubrid_prepare(3) function is a sort of API which represents SQL statements compiled previously to a given connection handle. This pre-compiled SQL statement will be included in the cubrid_prepare(3). Accordingly, you can use this statement effectively to execute several times repeatedly or to process long data. Only a single statement can be used and a parameter may put a question mark (?) to appropriate area in the SQL statement. Add a parameter when you bind a value in the VALUES clause of INSERT statement or in the WHERE clause. Note that it is allowed to bind a value to a MARK(?) by using the cubrid_bind(3) function only. PARAMETERS
o $conn_identifier -Connection identifier. o $prepare_stmt -Prepare query. o $option -OID return option CUBRID_INCLUDE_OID. RETURN VALUES
Request identifier, if process is successful; FALSE, if process is unsuccessful. EXAMPLES
Example #1 cubrid_prepare(3) example <?php $conn = cubrid_connect("localhost", 33000, "demodb"); $sql = <<<EOD SELECT g.event_code, e.name FROM game g JOIN event e ON g.event_code=e.code WHERE host_year = ? AND event_code NOT IN (SELECT event_code FROM game WHERE host_year=?) GROUP BY event_code; EOD; $req = cubrid_prepare($conn, $sql); cubrid_bind($req, 1, 2004); cubrid_bind($req, 2, 2000); cubrid_execute($req); $row_num = cubrid_num_rows($req); printf("There are %d event that exits in 2004 olympic but not in 2000. For example: ", $row_num); printf("%-15s %s ", "Event_code", "Event_name"); printf("---------------------------- "); $row = cubrid_fetch_assoc($req); printf("%-15d %s ", $row["event_code"], $row["name"]); $row = cubrid_fetch_assoc($req); printf("%-15d %s ", $row["event_code"], $row["name"]); cubrid_disconnect($conn); ?> The above example will output: There are 27 event that exits in 2004 olympic but not in 2000. For example: Event_code Event_name ---------------------------- 20063 +91kg 20070 64kg SEE ALSO
