I’am trying to delete words which have 2 capital letters consecutively with MySQL. Like: “ABC”, “AA”, “NBC”. No others.

The following query doesn’t work (it finds all words, which have 2 letters)

  WHERE names REGEXP '[A-Z][A-Z]'

Do you know how to do that?

WHERE names REGEXP BINARY '[A-Z]{2}'

REGEXP is not case sensitive, except when used with binary strings.
