Du kan skrive en funktion som denne, for eksempel:

create or replace function is_valid(p_val in varchar2)
return number
is
  not_a_valid_day   exception;
  not_a_valid_month exception;
  pragma exception_init(not_a_valid_day, -1847);
  pragma exception_init(not_a_valid_month, -1843);
  l_date date;
begin
  l_date := to_date(p_val, 'ddmm');
  return 1;
exception
  when not_a_valid_day or not_a_valid_month
  then return 0;
end;
