By no records are returned do you mean you are trying to SELECT from
an access database? Copy/paste in an example of something that's not
working for you, along with what versions of these you are using:
Perl
DBI
DBD::ODBC(?) - which DBD module are you using to access Access?
If the string passed to Access has a number at the end no records are
returned.
If I remove the number and there are records in the file that match the
remaining characters then records are returned.
I can go into Access and use the same string and the search works.
Any help would be greatly
