phatuis Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Hello, I am looking for some help. What I am hoping to do, is say if in the search box, R is put in, then the script will run a command where it searches the database, where say in name, the first letter is R. However, if someone submits RY, then it would search NAME where it begins with RY. Is this possible? EDIT: Nevermind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PravinS Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Use SQL query like this. SELECT * FROM tbl_name WHERE key_col LIKE 'RY%'; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
