Replace your sql select query with these lines: SELECT LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME, DEPARTMENT FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE LASTNAME LIKE '%varLastName%'
It makes caseinsensitive search, so when varLastName is 'C' it will find Clark and Wilcox ,because they contain letter 'C'. Also you can use 'varLastName%' to find only Clark when varLastName is 'C' --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
