Hi Xavier,
Access has its own SQL syntax:
Like ' * Mariah * '
"Real" syntax (by SQL standard) is
Like ' %Mariah%'
That should work in both cases (even though I've occasionally had problems
running it inside Access).

Subject: Problem with "Like" and Access
Hello everybody !
I have a problem using the SQL operator "Like" from a servlet,
If I use for example something like
"SELECT * FROM cds WHERE singer Like ' * Mariah * ' ; "
I want to see all the singers which name has the word 'Mariah'
it works well if I execute it inside the Access, but it doesn't
works when I try to do it from a servlet.
If I use
"SELECT * FROM cds WHERE singer Like 'Mariah';"
I only see the singers which name is exactly 'Mariah' but
I want to see "Mariah Carey" and "A. Mariah Smith" and ...
(I'm using Microsoft Access and JDBC-ODBC Bridge.)
Does anyone know how can I do it ???
Thanks in advance !
Xavier.
