I would add that it seems from Xuanvinh's post that he is looking for
names that start with '2_'.

Since LIKE considers '_' to be a metacharacter that matches any single
character, wouldn't the '_' need to be escaped?  Something like this:

     select * from tableName where Name LIKE '2/_%' ESCAPE '/';
