Hi,
I am trying to run an sql query of my streets map file to make some changes
to the street names.  What I would like to do is select any street in my
streets table that has a portion of a text string such as find all streets
that contain the letters "jo".  The query would then pull johnson st, jones
st, etc.  I can't seem to get this working it is looking for exact matches.

Select:  Roads
Where:  streetname = "jo%"

This does not work.  Does anyone know the correct wildcard or use of the
wildcard?  Thanks in advance.

Mike
