asp_databases thread: Search feature that matches anywhere in a field

Hello fellows,
I'd like to add a search feature that can filter out records in which
matches anywhere of the field.
For example, if a user input TV, then all the records include 'TV'
anywhere in the subject field come out.
How can I do that?

WHERE subject LIKE '%TV%'

Hi Owen,
I used that method but it returned no record matches.
Here is the code that I used.
"where jeprodno.deptno = '" & session("strdeptno") & "' AND '" & session
("product") & "' LIKE '%jeprodno.prodno%' " & _
What's wrong with my coding?

Hmmm. Is the name of your field really held in the product session
variable? Are you really looking for a substring match on the exact string
"jeprodno.prodno"?
The AND is going to have precedence over the LIKE (you must match BOTH
conditions). Why don't you try the query without the AND, just the LIKE and
see if you get anything back.
Another thing to test is to put the SQL call into a variable (strSQL is
common) and then print it out to make sure you're sending to SQL what you
think you are.
