Hi, I have a table where I keep some part from the beginning of a discount card number. Length of beginning is variable. User provides a complete card number at runtime, I need to find a single row in my table which begins as the complete card number, or I need to know no match exists in my table.
I might do it coding in my application, but that would be way too slow compared to an SQL statement I assume. Table is as follows. CREATE TABLE FIYATKODLARI( Kodu Varchar(30) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ); It contains something like: Kodu ---- SA SB SSC SAA SBDE 8694 125 Complete card number may be something like: SB1 SA25 SA325 SB1054 SAA23 86941005 12504 Below didn't work for me because complete card number is longer, and I do lack SQL knowledge: select * from FIYATKODLARI where Kodu like 'SB1%' Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
