I've provided a selfexplanatory fix of the 'bad' code, please review it. You code uses standard.like, and a lot "isntances of booleans" -- each IF condition, same could relate to out variables (ls), and I hope you understood why the package is used.

"I would suggest to consider some simple things:

. standard Oracle and your application's package(s) dependencies . proper datatypes usage
"

I cannot provide you with tech. details open the C (native) code and see.
