RE: OT DB field contains but is not first list element
I think what you want is: where (this_field not like '#this_item#%') and (this_field like '%#this_item#%') Note that there's a % at each end of this_item in the second clause. --Ben Doom Programmer General Lackey Moonbow Software : -Original Message- : From: JS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] : Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 10:49 AM : To: CF-Talk : Subject: OT DB field contains but is not first list element : : : I have a situation where I have a list of elements in : a db field and I need to pull the records where an : item appears somewhere in the list but is not the : first item.

RE: OT DB field contains but is not first list element
It looks like you've already pretty much got it down: WHERE (this_field NOT LIKE '#this_item#%') AND (this_field LIKE '%#this_item#%') ^ ^ Just put the % both before and after this_item in the second conditional clause. -- Mosh Teitelbaum evoch, LLC Tel: (301) 625-9191 Fax: (301) 933-3651 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.evoch.com/ -Original Message- From: JS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 10:49 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT DB field contains but is not first list element I have a situation where I have a list of elements in a db field and I need to pull the records where an item appears somewhere in the list but is not the first item.
