Like clause

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to use Like clause in where condition.

select f1,f2 from tab1 where f3 like '%' input_param '%'.

input_param is input parameter's value.

Please help with the syntax.

Thanks

Hi Pratibha,

have a look at this example

Examples

Example to select all customers whose name begins with 'M':

DATA SCUSTOM_WA TYPE SCUSTOM.

SELECT ID NAME FROM SCUSTOM

INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF SCUSTOM_WA

WHERE NAME LIKE 'M%'.

WRITE: / SCUSTOM_WA-ID, SCUSTOM_WA-NAME.

ENDSELECT.

Example to select all customers whose name begins with '100%':

DATA SCUSTOM_WA TYPE SCUSTOM.

SELECT ID NAME FROM SCUSTOM

INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF SCUSTOM_WA

WHERE NAME LIKE '100#%' ESCAPE '#'.

WRITE: / SCUSTOM_WA-ID, SCUSTOM_WA-NAME.

ENDSELECT.

use

data test type string.

CONCATENATE '%' input_param '%' INTO test.

select f1,f2 from tab1 where f3 like test.

Hi,

Try the below code.

Concatenate '%' input_param '%' to test.

select sname

into dl_sname

from pa0001

where sname like Test.

endselect.

It will fetch you all the names of employees who have

TEST in their name.

Thanks & Regards,

Siri.
