Do a Query on

SELECT  *
FROM            DBTable
WHERE           LastName LIKE "A%"

You will get all the records which last name start with "A".

Hi,

In Yahoo address book, they have this list for finding a particular
person easily
by the first letter of their last name:

All - A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z - Lists

Does anyone have any insights on how the algorithm of implementing this
feature?

For example, I have a user database, and I want to use this feature to
find
persons whose last name start with a particular letter.

Thanks!

Hong
