You need code tags so your [0] shows up...
Actually I like runrig's solution better than mine, it still
goes through all the options, but it can be very simply tweaked
to return which fields were empty, which is quite useful in
this case. Your way will work, but since the calls for the
data are retrieved via methods, and not a data structure, your
way still has to call them all to be successful. You could
do it otherwise, but then you would lose genericity. For
something like this I prefer either a few lines of code in the prog,
or a sub like yours that you pass params and a list of fields,
but as I said, its not so generic any more....

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
