What's not entirely clear to me is whether you only want to find colours that
have BOTH Yellow and Orange set and nothing else, or colours that have

Hate to interrupt your flame war, and I apologize for not being precise in
my meaning first try... You don't need any bitwise anything to compare two
bitmasks-hiding-in-integers, just check for equality.
Instead of select * from coloursample where colour 10 = 10; just try
select * from

the universal solution is a AND with one mask (which has a 1 in every

ignore) and an XOR with another mask (that has a 1 in each position that
you want to test for a 1 and a zero in each position that you wish to

Suppose 1=Red, 2=Yellow, 4=Green and 8=Orange.
Now suppose the following data structures and rows exist:
create table coloursample (recid integer, colour integer, descript varchar);
insert into coloursample values (1,2,'Yellow only');
insert into coloursample values (2,10,'Yellow and Orange');

But how do I find records which are ONLY yellow and orange
what about
select * from coloursample where colour = 10;
