The wildcard should be a '%', not a '*'.
<cfquery name="get" datasource="#application.datasource#">
select * from dic
where name like 'T%'
order by name
</cfquery>

Subject: Easy access question
I want to search a dictionary table in an access database. I want to find
all records where the name starts with the letter T.
<cfquery name="get" datasource="#application.datasource#">
select * from dic
where name like 'T*'
order by name
</cfquery>
This should give me any record that has the first letter in name start with
T right? Wrong. : (
What am I doing wrong???
