Lets say i have the following function in a package:

FUNCTION test (A varchar := NULL,
B varchar := NULL,
C Date := NULL
D Date := NULL) RETURN NUMBER ;

Would it be possible to run the function like:

SELECT test(A,D)-- skip B and C
FROM dual;

or like below..???

SELECT test(A,,,D)-- skip B and C with comma delimiter.
FROM dual;

Hi,
You can do it but not exactly the way you wrote.
If you have a function test(A,B,C,D ) return number
then
you need call the function like this
I.
to call test(a,c)
test(a --> 100, c --> 20)

II.
to call test(a,b,c,d)
test(c--> 200, b --> 20 a --> 100, d--> 30)
or
test(100,20,200,30)
