SQL Scripts "LIKE" Statement? need help

1 New Member
hi,

Good day!

Anyone generous enough to help me with this query. Anyway,

I have a random acount number of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and i wanna get the results after this number in a table.

Select * from table where account like ('1%','2%', '3%','4%','5%')


is this select query possible or not? or there are other method which you can recommend. thank you.

regards,

Unamas

No, this format is not possible. But I would prefer the following:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. SELECT * FROM table where SUBSTRING(account,1,1) BETWEEN 1 AND 5

Hi all, Does anyone know of how I can disable case sensitivity for the LIKE function in SQL? Currently the SQL statement looks like: $query = "SELECT * FROM itrader_games WHERE console='$console' AND genre='$genre' AND title LIKE '%$title%' ";

anyone know of a function like "raw_input", which collects a string from the user entry, but one where I can set a time limit, as follows: time_limit = 10 # seconds user_answer = function_xyz("GIVE ME AN ANSWER: ", time_limit) The problem with "raw_input" is that it will stop unattended script indefinitely. I'm looking for a function that does the exact same thing, but with a time limit feature, and preferably one that returns

My problem is the last bit of coding below, the like statement does not work. what I have is a product options field and in it is stored characters i.e. "avcy" etc what the query does is that if I type in any single character all the products that match the criteria should be displayed. So if I typed in an "a" I should get 3 returns (see below) Fields could look like this: product.options: bhw djhsa

Hi, I need to write a function that should behave like the SQL's "like" operator on a list of words. I was wondering if I can use Regex directly to do this job. But I've been reading about regex and it supports very different characters and behaves different. So, I'm looking for an advise. I'd like to know if it is feasable or not, I mean, if dotnet Regex implementation could handle it.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
