SELECT *
FROM JOBS_table
my like such following;
WHERE Job_id (1st) LIKE 'IT%'
AND Job_id (2nd) LIKE 'SA%';
You are requesting a field, which is starting with IT AND starting with SA, which will never be satisfyable.
Either you use "OR" or if you search in a string with "LIKE %IT%" AND "%SA%".

I'm using Retool, and trying to run a query where the column value comes from a drop-down list. The value output is a string, so my query looks like this:
select * from accounts where {{dropDownList.value}} ilike {{'%' + account_search_textInput.value + '%'}}
When the query runs, it is as follows:
select * from accounts where "first_name" ilike '%Adam%';
The double quotes around the column name first_name seem to be causing an issue but I don't think I can remove them. Is there any other way to successfully run the query where first_name can represent the column name rather than a string value?
I want to retrieve data of 'Match' and 'Average' columns from the following table if '2'
exists using LIKE.
I have tried by writing the following query but it failed.
SELECT * FROM batsman_profile
WHERE (Match LIKE '%2%') AND (Average LIKE '%2%');
Can anyone help me how to retrieve data as I want.
In order to treat these numbers as a String you should use function CONVERT(varchar(10), field_name) like this:
SELECT *
FROM batsman_profile
WHERE (CONVERT(varchar(10), Match) LIKE '%2%')
AND
(CONVERT(varchar(10), Average) LIKE '%2%');
I am very new to lotus notes. This will all be done on the client. I need to write a custom search that will search a particular form. This an example of the fields:
FormName = MyForm1
database fields are called Name1, Name2, Name3
datasbase fields are department1, deparment2, department3, department 4.
The search form will only have 2 fields. Name and Department. I need the following to happen, The name search field needs to seach all 3 name fields, the department field needs to search all 4 department fields.
Thank you for your assistance.
It depends a bit on exactly how fuzzy you need your search to be. Are you searching for an exact match, or for a partial match in those fields?
Assuming the exact match, you just need a formula that looks in the multiple name fields, and multiple department fields for a match. Let's call the search query fields NameQuery and DepartmentQuery. Then you could construct this formula which would return true if the value in NameQuery is found within one of the name fields, and the value in DepartmentQuery is found in one of the department fields.
#IsMember(NameQuery; Name1:Name2:Name3) & #IsMember(DepartmentQuery; Department1:Department2:Department3:Department4);
If instead you need to search for a partial match, you could use the #LIKE formula. First, concatenate the name and department field values into a single string using #IMPLODE. You can then do a wildcard match. This isn't very efficient, mind you, so if you're working on tens of thousands of documents you might want to find a better solution.
AllNameItems := #Implode(Name1:Name2:Name3; " ");
AllDepartmentItems := #Implode(Department1:Department2:Department3:Department4; " ");
#Like(AllNameItems; "%" + NameQuery + "%") & #Like(AllDepartmentItems; "%" + DepartmentQuery + "%");

The built-in search will work fine for you, no doubt!
Here are the steps...
- Build your new form (ie, "MyForm" ) to hold your data;
- Build your view, to display your data as columns;
- Set your view's "Form Formula" to "MyForm" (with quotes)
- Make sure the "search bar", is enabled, for the view;
- Enter the values to search for;
- The results are displayed, nicely!
That should help...
I am using the following InnoDB tables in mysql to describe records that can have multiple searchtags associated with them:
TABLE records
ID
title
desc
TABLE searchTags
ID
name
TABLE recordSearchTags
recordID
searchTagID
To SELECT records based on arbitrary search input, I have a statement that looks sort of like this:
SELECT
recordSearchTags.recordID
FROM
recordSearchTags
LEFT JOIN searchTags
ON recordSearchTags.searchTagID = searchTags.ID
WHERE
searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search1','%') OR
searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search2','%') OR
searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search3','%') OR
searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search4','%');
I'd like to ORDER this resultset, so that rows that match with more search terms are displayed in front of rows that match with fewer search terms.
For example, if a row matches all 4 search terms, it will be top of the list. A row that matches only 2 search terms will be somewhere in the middle. And a row that matches just one search term will be at the end.
Any suggestions on what is the best way to do this?
Thanks!

Alright, it's not pretty, but you should be able to do something like this:
ORDER BY (searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search1','%')
+ searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search2','%')
+ searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search3','%')
+ searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search4','%'))
DESC;
LIKE returns 1 on a match or 0 if there is no match, so you should just be able to add the results together.
This isn't very pretty but one way would be to union the 4 likes in 4 statements like
select ... where searchTags.name LIKE CONCAT('%','$search1','%')
union
select ...
and so on. Wrap that in a:
select recordSearchTags.recordID, count(*) from (<inner unions>)
group by recordSearchTags.recordID
order by count(*)
I have predefined item combination (for example brand1|brand2|brand3 etc) in the table.
i like to collect brands and check against with predefined table data.
For example i collected brand1|brand2|brand3 then i can do get some value form that predefined table(it meets the condition).
How can i check?
brands would be unlimited. also brand1|brand2|brand3 of brand1|brand2| exist then returns true.
Okay, taking a wild guess at what you're asking, you have a delimited field with brands in them separated by a | character. You want to return any row that has the right combination of the brands in there, but don't want to return rows with, for example, brand "testify" in them when you search for "test".
You have four search conditions (looking for brand3):
the brand exists by itself: "brand3"
the brand starts the delimited field: "brand3|brand4|brand6"
the brand is in the middle of the field: "brand1|brand3|brand6"
the brand is at the end of the field: "brand1|brand2|brand3"
so, in SQL:
SELECT *
FROM MyTable
WHERE BrandField = 'brand3'
OR BrandField LIKE 'brand3|%'
OR BrandField LIKE '%|brand3|%'
OR BrandField LIKE '%|brand3'
Repeat as required for multiple brands.
