Re: Request for help....

Farhana,
I think that you need to use the OPTIONAL key word. This will allow you to
get a return if one of the OPTIONAL parts is matched.

However, this would return true when only one OPTIONAL part matches. I am
not sure how you would get it to return only when three of the OPTIONAL
parts match, as opposed to just one.
Maybe if you used OPTIONAL with &&, several times with the various desired
combinations?

I am fairly new to this too.

Best wishes,
Leonard
