Is there a command that allows me to select individual rows that begin with specific characters?
For example, if i had the following table:

Product Description Sales
10-001 Product 1-A 100
00-001 Product 0-A 50
00-002 Product 0-B 200
00-003 Product 0-C 75
10-002 Product 1-B 25
10-003 Product 1-C 150

What would be the command to select only the products that begin with "00-". Another way of thinking about this question would be, how do i delete the rows that begin with "10-"

Again, thanks in advance!
