The problem will be this line:
v_string := o_cursor;

You can't assign cursors to strings.
Cursors are pointers to queries.
To get the results of the query you need to fetch the cursor into a variable or set of variables and then interrogate those.

You're using a for loop, so that does the fetch for you.
You need to use i.

Welcome to the forum.
Please read the OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read.
Indent the code, make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters.
Also always post your Oracle version, with 4 decimals (query v$version), as often solution depends on it.
