Hello,

I am very new to python. Wrote a small program to use on my android phone using 
pickle/shelve to access  data.
That worked fine but i realised it would be better to use sqlite as a database 
to more easily modify the data.
I havent got a clue about sqlite, have a book but cant find the answer
My problem is this. i can access data by putting characters to search for in 
the program but i want it to be a variable that i can search for characters i 
input from keypad.
I am guessing its a syntax problem?
At the moment this works to search for everything beginning with A

sql = "SELECT * FROM plants WHERE genus LIKE 'A%'";

cursor.execute(sql);

slt =cursor.fetchone();


What i really need is to search for everything beginning with two letters from 
an input command
