Looks like you're running into a case-sensitivity issue. Try
select * from sonusrpt where upper(subject) like upper('%general%');
HTH.

I am running oracle8i on solaris8. I have a word ( General ) in my column
named "subject", I try to run SQL using LIKE and % to grep any data having
the word ( General ) but it displayed no rows selected. Does someone have
any idea why? Below is my SQL I used.
SQL> select * from sonusrpt where subject like '%general%';
no rows selected.
Thanks,
David
