Question

I am looking into creating something that does this:

SELECT *
FROM (`tm_accounts`)
WHERE  CONCAT(`last_name`, `first_name`)  LIKE '%o%'

This, of course, doesn’t work. I just want you to see the idea behind what I’m trying to emulate.

last_name and first_name are two separate fields in the accounts table

Answer 1

SELECT *
FROM (`tm_accounts`)
WHERE last_name LIKE '%o%' 
   or first_name LIKE '%o%';
