Even better:
where ship_name like '%' || SHIP_ID || '%'

I think using LIKE is faster.
where ship_name like '%ABC%'

Ranganath,
You can use instr(ship_name, ship_id) > 0
Cheers,

Hi all,
I have a table by name shipment with two columns say
ship_id and
ship_name and data as follows:
SHIP_ID SHIP_NAME
------------- -------------------
ABC 1ABCLMN
XYZ 23XYZ1112
ABB 123LM
I want to select all the columns in shipment table which
has ship_id
as string in the ship_name column. For example, ship_id 'ABC' is present
in
'1ABCLMN'. So that record should be selected. The ship_id string may
start
from any position and end at any position in ship_name column. So I
cannot
use the substr function in this case. How do I write the select clause
for
this requirement?
Any help in this regard is very much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Ranganath
