Hello,
I want to use startswith in a query like following, but it didn't work:
db.person.name.startswith(db.student.name)
What is wrong in this query? Is there a better way for it or a work
around? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

expected life time for model numbers such as SVP7 for 10 years, TPU3
for 20 years. I want the wildcard SVP7 match all SVP701, SVP710,

ok. there's clearly a mismatch between what you expect from what you're
writing.
db.table.field == 'something'
db.table.field something
db.table.field.startswith('something')

Thank you very much for your detail answers. It seems that your new data
model is better, and is the way to go.
My old model may be fine for my small database using the OR. I may try
both and compare.
Thanks!
