Hello everybody

I'm trying to make a query in a table to find the records who contains a full word 'im looking for.

   Here is an example about i'm trying

   code      text
   1            foobar
   2            xxxx foobar
   3            xxxx foobar yyyyy
   4            foobar xxxx
   5            foobars
   6            foobar.
   7            xxxx foobar.

What i want is to find foobar (records 1, 2, 3 and 4) but no foobars (record 5). If i try

      SELECT code FROM table WHERE text LIKE '%foobar%'

   The result is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.  But if I try

      SELECT code FROM table WHERE text LIKE '% foobar %'

The result is only record number 3. How can i search the entire FOOBAR word? The result wanted must be all, excepting 5.

   Thank you very much.

   PD: Sorry about my english
