Question

Okay so I have database and I need to extract only certain rows that have 111 in them.

so basically by db looks like this:

------------ ------------
|     ID     |     AB     |
 ------------ ------------
|     1      |   bc112    |
 ------------ ------------
|     2      |   cd111    |
 ------------ ------------
|     3      |   ac111    |
 ------------ ------------
|     4      |   bd121    |
 ------------ ------------

I thought that this line would work:

SELECT AB
FROM THING
WHERE AB='* 111';

but that didn’t work for some reason…

Answer 1

Should be % instead of * and like instead of = :

SELECT AB
FROM THING
WHERE AB like '%111';
