LIKE % % with inner join

hey there,

This is for a search function /What I want to do is, return a datatable
with all the ID's that have the required values. This is easy enough
when everything I want to enter is in the same table. But I need to
check against some entries that are not int he same tables. At the
moment I have this.

SQL = "SELECT Job FROM JOBS WHERE (job LIKE '%" + jName + "%') AND
(StrtDate LIKE '%" + datestarted + "%') "

This works fine, however, I need to add a part that will do this with
an inner join.
So,, I want someone to enter the job name , start date AND street name
(which is in another tables) and it will go to the 'Adresses' table and
return all the ID's in the jobs table that have that street name linked
to them in the adreses table. my SQL for the select command of Jobs and
adresses is

SQL = "SELECT Addresses." + returnColumn + " FROM Addresses INNER JOIN
Jobs ON Addresses.ID=Jobs.SiteAdID WHERE (((Jobs." + checkColumn + ")="
+ checkValue + "))"

So how do I make the 'LIKE' SQL string work with the inner join?

Thanx in advance
