Question

Just wondering if there is a better way to write the following PL/SQL piece of code in ORACLE ?

IF(p_c_courtesies_cd is not null  OR  p_c_language_cd is not null OR v_c_name is not null OR v_c_firstname is not null OR v_c_function is not null OR p_c_phone is not null OR p_c_mobile is not null OR p_c_fax is not null OR v_c_email is not null ) THEN      -- Do something END IF; 

Answer 1

If coalesce( expr1, expr2, ... expr_n ) is not null then do something end if; 

See here.

(Thanks Tony for the correction)
