SQL multiple columns in IN clause

Question

If we need to query a table based on some set of values for a given column, we can simply use the IN clause.

But if query need to be performed based on multiple col

Answer 1

In general you can easily write the Where-Condition like this:

select * from tab1
where (col1, col2) in (select col1, col2 from tab2)

Note
Oracle ignores rows where one or more of the selected columns is NULL. In these cases you probably want to make use of the NVL-Funktion to map NULL to a special value (that should not be in the values):

select * from tab1
where (col1, NVL(col2, '---') in (select col1, NVL(col2, '---') from tab2)
