Have you tried,
select * from Table where column like 'Word%'

This will select any record where the column starts with Word and anything
after that.

I refined my attempt a little further, and the following code does seem to work, however it has 2 major problems: 1. Very limited support for XPath features Basic paths are supported for elements, attributes, ".", and "..", plus also the "" predicate format is supported - however, only one predicate per path step is supported, and expr must be a relative path. 2. Poor performance

Hello guys, I was wondering if it was possible to reference a boolean predicate in a variable. Basically I want to do with the boolean predicate what you would do with any other variable; I want it to apply to many places without having to update all those different locations if the predicate needs to change. This is not a full stylesheet, just snippets of the idea
