I've inherited a database so must live with a less than elegant
structure.
The table contains one "keyword" field into which the author has entered
things like...
Record 1 = Apples
Record 2 = Apples, Bananas
Record 3 = Apples, Figs
Record 4 = Bananas, Figs, Dates
I need to do a search on this field to return all of the records
containing
"Figs". What's the search syntax?
I've tried...
SELECT * from dbname.tablename MATCH (dbname.fieldname) AGAINST 'Figs'
[/snip]
A. Belongs on a SQL list (and there are plenty)
2. SELECT * FROM dbname.tablename WHERE (dbname.fieldname) LIKE '%Figs%'
