Hi, I have a form with two fields surname_from and surname_to, I want to be able to do a select query where the results will lie between these to values. That's easy enough but I also want to include all results where the record field (surname) matches the first part of the fields - in effect a BETWEEN query incorporating the LIKE function.
For example select * from consumers surname BETWEEN '$surname_from' AND '$surname_to' assume $surname_from = A and $surname_to = B would only return results where the surname is A or greater but less than B, but I would like to include all records where records also start with B. For example it would return A Allan Anderson Appleby B But I want it to return A Allan Anderson Appleby B Black Brown Butterworth Has anyone any ideas?
