Question

Ok, I have table called “lookup” which has a column called “name” which contains a bit of data starting with “Quantity for pricing” (the data I need is in the same cell just after Quantity for Pricing). I was wondering if there was any way to pull out that “row”, and list all the quantities except for Quantity for Pricing using mysql?

Sorry for the confusion guys, this is what I am dealing with.

I am pretty sure the data I need (the actual quantities) are stored in the same bit that “Quantity for Pricing” is.

You can use substring operation.

SELECT SUBSTRING(name,LENGTH('Quantity for pricing'))          
FROM lookup WHERE name LIKE 'Quantity for pricing%';
