My Table structure have two Columns, One for start range and another for End of Range.
Both are alphanumeric.
I have to search a row according to user input, a Alphanumeric string.

like :
SELECT form table where range1 <= ‘user_input’ and range2 >= ‘user_input’;

But range1, range2 and user_input are alphanumeric values (Barcodes).

range1 and range2 are alphanumeric numbers generated by some php function in a series.

like for range1 156WB562789 and range2 156WB562880

range1 and range2 have change in last 3 chars (which are numbers) only remain all are same.

    If your barcode has always the same structure ([0-9]{3}[A-Z]{2}[0-9]{5}) you can split it into 3 cols (part1 part2 part3 ) and then split user’s string and make a query that will operate with that three cols.

    It is not optimal solution but I have no other right now.
