From a web search (and abbreviated): >>I have BLOBs in my schema and the data will often start with bytes of >>0 value. >>I'm having a tough time coming up with the proper SQL syntax to >> select all the columns that start with 2 0's (or any zeros).
> SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE myblob LIKE X'0025'; > SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE quote(myblob) LIKE 'X''00%'; Now I have a column of blob data (always 20 bytes) and I would like to do a LIKE select on this column where I have the first 10 bytes but they can be any value including, of course, the % character. Is this possible or does the arbitrary nature of the data make this infeasible? If it is possible, how would I define a prepared statement so that I can just bind the (10 byte) value into it?
