Printing Record Fields in PL / SQL

How to print all fields of a record variable in PL / SQL. A record variable has many fields, so is this better than printing each field? Also tried dynamic sql but didn't help.

Using Ollies to use dbms_output, but for dynamically passing the cursor

configured for testing

/*create table temp (aa varchar2(50) , bb number , cc date ) ;

insert into temp (aa,bb,cc)
  select chr(level+100) , level, sysdate+level
    from dual
     connect by level < 15 ;

*/

Block to show test (this assumes 11g)

I found and processed  14 rows .

I did something similar to dynamically build a csv file using these two links as sources    http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=505   http://asktom.oracle.com / pls / apex / f? p = 100: 11: 0 :::: P11_QUESTION_ID: 88212348059
