I have a table with a field that contains a list of zip codes seperated 
with commas, like this:

97401.97402,97404               etc

If I have any old zip code and I want to find records that contain this 
one in the list, what exactly is the darn syntax? No matter what I do in 
Access I can't get it to find any matches using the LIKE operator.

This doesn't work:

SELECT dealer_name from dealers where dealer_zips like '97401*'

I've tried it with and w/o the single quotes, tried double quotes, tried 
a '%' symbol (ala postgres) and without the "*"....


I miss my fox.....  :(
