Re: Like Command returning wrong result set

Hello group,

 

I’m writing a script and a bit confused on the results with the like command.

 

gm.title like 'CP_%'

 

The above command gives me records with titles like CP_40, CP_2, CP_23, etc.

 

gm.title like '%_CT'

 

The above command give me records with tiles like Quiz: RadiInterpretation w/ CBCT.

 

I was expecting it to return titles that contained *_CT, i.e. FX_CT or DR_CT.  It’s as if it’s ignoring the underscore the way it would do if you were using ‘%CT’.  Does it ignore the underscore when it’s right after the ‘%’?

 

• Percent sign ( %) matches any sequence of zero or more characters.
• Underscore sign ( _)  matches any single character.
