LIKE doesn't support regular expressions. You'd have to do "cn LIKE 'a%' OR cn LIKE 'b%'...". However, definitely check your DB's documentation to see if there is a regular expression operator. MySQL has REGEX, for example, which is the same as LIKE, except that it understands regex instead of percent signs.
