Question

I am using sql server. I have a table

Company
 ABC
 XYZ
 ABC,XYZ

When I run a like query where company like '%ABC%' I get the record containing only ABC and not ABC,XYZ

How to get both the records?

Answer 1

First, you should not contain comma separated list in one column. Doing so, you will run into issues trying to query the data.

Second, your code should work:

select *
from t
where company like '%ABC%'
