| Noob question here...I'm trying to pull IDs for all companies on a given list. Trouble is the names don't quite match up, so I'm trying to use a LIKE query. Is there any way to do this on multiple names? select * where company_name like 'name1%', 'name2%'... |

| select distinct company_namefrom tbl tjoin (select name = 'name1%' union select 'name2%' ...) names on t.company_name like names.name==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
