In the dataview rowfilter property, how can I say that I just want
Titles that start with 'A' to 'J' ??
ex:
dv.rowfilter = " Country = ' France ' "
I want
dv.rowfilter = " Title = (from 'A' to 'J') "
This doesn't work :
dv.rowfilter = " Title like '[a-j]%' "
Neither does :
dv.rowfilter = " Title like 'a%'" AND "Title like 'b%'" AND..so on
But this does work just for the Titles starting with 'a'
dv.rowfilter = " Title like 'a%' "
Assume that this is really SQL passed to SQL Server, my bets goes to:
dv.rowfilter = " Title like '[ABCDEFGHIJ]%' "
But I believe you are in the wrong newsgroup. It looks to me that
you are using a row filter on the DataView object, and they have their
own syntax. As I can read out from the book I have on ADO .Net, it does
not seem that you can use [] as wildcards in a row filter. In such case
you would have to use:
dv.rowfilter = " Title like 'a%'" OR "Title like 'b%'" OR..so on
To get real certainty, you should frequent
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet.
