LIKE 'A%' With Other Parameters

233 100+
I am attempting to perform a query where I pull all names that begin with 'A' along with a couple other parameters. If I just look for names that begin with 'A', everything goes as planned, but when I add other stipulations, the previous is now void. How can I get around this?

You did not post your code so I'm assuming there's an OR in your WHERE clause. You should either use AND or use parenthesis to group your conditions.
