Of course, there is much more to it than that, more than you could expect from a single support posting. PSQL language is an area of study in its own right. Part Seven of The Firebird Book comprises 120 pages and five chapters on this subject and it already needs at least one more! You can embed a FOR...SELECT loop inside another one as well, by a variety of means.
The FOR SELECT....INTO...DO syntax is one way. There are other ways. For example, study the PSQL section of the release notes for Firebird 2.x, under the topic 'Explicit Cursors'.
