I am currently trying to write a select statement that will return name information. We have a situtation where we have last names with hypens in them and when the exact name is entered "Adam-salmi" it returns last names that are "Adam" also. I am new to Oracle and any help would be greatly appreciated. I will attach the sql statement.
SELECT LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME, MIDDLE_NAME, SUFFIX, TO_CHAR(BIRTH_DATE,'YYYY/MM/DD'), SSN_OR_EIN, WARRANT_DEPARTMENT, WARRANT_KEY, PERSON_SEX, RACE_CODE, LAST_NAME || FIRST_NAME FROM PR00100T.WARRANT A, PR00100T.MASTER_NAME B, PR00100T.PERSON C WHERE A.WANTED_PERSON_KEY = B.PERSON_KEY AND A.WANTED_PERSON_KEY = C.PERSON_KEY AND A.WANTED_NAME_KEY = B.NAME_KEY AND A.WARR_STATUS_CODE = '01' AND LAST_NAME || FIRST_NAME >= TRIM(:WS-BEGIN-KEY02) ORDER BY B.LAST_NAME ASC, B.FIRST_NAME ASC, B.MIDDLE_NAME ASC, A.WARRANT_KEY ASC; -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Oracle PL/SQL" group.
