Cursor attributes SQL%FOUND and SQL%NOTFOUND are not updated by 
a SELECT INTO statement, but will retain whatever values they 
held before execution of the SELECT INTO statement.  This is 
incorrect.

In practice, the exception NO_DATA_FOUND will be raised in 
PL/SQL code when a SELECT INTO statement returns no rows.  Any 
subsequent logic that depends upon SQL%NOTFOUND being TRUE or 
SQL%FOUND being FALSE will not normally be executed, unless it 
is part of a handler that catches the NO_DATA_FOUND exception. 
 
As a workaround, move any logic that handles the cases where 
(SQL%NOTFOUND = TRUE) or (SQL%FOUND = FALSE) to the exception 
handling section.  Remove any tests for (SQL%FOUND = TRUE) or 
(SQL%NOTFOUND = FALSE) that test the result of a previous SELECT 
INTO statement.  Such tests are redundant and may produce 
incorrect results, because SQL%FOUND and SQL%NOTFOUND are not 
updated by the SELECT INTO statement. 
 
For example, rewrite the following logic: 
 
BEGIN 
  ... 
  select * into v_rec from test where id = 6; 
  IF SQL%NOTFOUND = TRUE THEN 
    -- The following code is unreachable: 
    -- Exception handling takes precedence. 
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('No data in V_REC'); 
  ELSE 
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('V_REC data read successfully'); 
  END IF; 
  ... 
END; 
 
as: 
 
 
BEGIN 
  ... 
  select * into v_rec from test where id = 6; 
  -- There is no need to test SQL%FOUND. 
  -- The fact that this code is reached 
  -- implies that SQL%FOUND is TRUE. 
  DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('V_REC data read successfully'); 
  ... 
EXCEPTION 
  WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN 
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('No data in V_REC'); 
END;
