There is no simple way, What is important for you ... value of the element or the index of the element in the pl/sql table? Looks like the index of the element is important for you.

Tell us again what is the problem? is it that you have too many array elements? where does the time goes? it should be in the execution of the function .. not in navigating from one element to next.

What version of oracle?

Sorry I did not make it clear that the number I used here (1, 9, 15,99) are just examples, the actual element index is a varible and they are not continuous. Yes, refTbl can be defined into a package. I guess what I am asking is if there is a way in pl/sql to do something like

FORALL array element indexes (they are non-continuous) call a package function (parameter: element index)
end for

without looping the array.

orginal code: declare type numTbl is table of number index by binary_integer; refTbl numTbl; i number; str varchar2(30); begin refTbl (1) := 1; refTbl (9) := 1; refTbl(15) := 1; refTbl(99) := 1;

  i := refTbl.first;
  while i is not null loop
    dbms_output.put_line ('i=' || i);
    str:= my_package.function(i);
    i := refTbl.next(i);
  end loop;
end;

Yes, they could, I didn't see it in this example.
