Brent | I've forgotten how to do a wildcard search using a table filter.
I've tried Filter := 'mymemo='''*Pepsi*'''; but that doesn't work because it returns no rows. It will find "Pepsi" using Filter := 'mymemo='''Pepsi*'''; only if mymemo starts with "Pepsi". So how can I search for a word or phrase that is inside a text or memo column using a table? TIA |

FilterOptions := FilterOptions + [foCaseInsensitive]; Hi Rita, That doesn't seem to work with a filter that is using "like". You can try it with the DBSU program, but it doesn't work there either. If you can get it to work there, let me know and I'll see if I can replicate it here. Brent |

From memory definitely not in BDE other engines I can't say since I've been a DBISAM and now ElevateDB user since switching from the BDE. Roy Lambert |
