Hello

Can anyone please tell me how to use sql like query with variable.

when I am doing this
SELECT SystemElementID,SETitleText,SESummaryText
FROM SystemElement
where SESummaryText LIKE '%history%'

its executing fine.

But when I doing this
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_SystemSearch]

@text as Text
AS

BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;

SELECT SystemElementID,SETitleText,SESummaryText
FROM SystemElement
where SESummaryText LIKE @text
END

I am not getting any result.
After executing it only shows table name and no result.

Thank You

may be this:-

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_SystemSearch]

@text as Text
AS

BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;


SELECT SystemElementID,SETitleText,SESummaryText
FROM SystemElement
where SESummaryText LIKE '%' +@text + '%'
END
