You would use the following code:
Supposing you had a DataTable object called dt
dt.Select("Name_agncy_nbr LIKE 'ABCBS*'");
This will return an array of DataRow objects where the Name_agncy_nbr
column Starts With ABCBS.

Subject: LIKE in ASP.NET
we are trying to filter Grid View in ASP.Net using ( filterexpression
="<colname>='{0}' ").
we would want to accomplish the same as "Starting with" or LIKE in
Visual FoxPro, how do you do that in ASP.NET?
for example, how can we replace this long string of Name_agncy_nbr
with
If RadioButtonList1.SelectedIndex = 1 Then
ObjectDataSource1.FilterExpression = "NAME_STAT='{0}'AND
(NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-IND'OR NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-C' OR
NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-W' OR NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-SW' OR
NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-NW' OR NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-WC' OR
NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-SC' OR NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-NE' OR
NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS-SE')"
End If
with one single line
NAME_AGNCY_NBR='ABCBS' &&
like we do in VFP
please email us an example.
Thanks,
Jean
