Hi all, I am trying to extend my search criteria on my site. the site uses php and a mysql database.
I have a field called postcode which contains postcodes such as:
S1 2RB
S6 3RK
S11 7AB

I have tried to query using the LIKE function ie:
query = SELECT * FROM Activities WHERE ActDesc LIKE '%tennis%' AND PostCode LIKE 'S1%';

However this returns both "S1 2RB" and "S11 7AB"

is it possible within the query to differeciate between the two?

Any help would be great.

Many thank
Steve
