How to select records that begin with a specific value in MySQL?
To select records that begin with a specific value, you need to use LIKE operator. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable690( UserId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, UserValue varchar(100) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.56 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable690(UserValue) values('567890'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.21 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable690(UserValue) values('789032'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable690(UserValue) values('567342'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable690(UserValue) values('890678'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable690;
This will produce the following output −
+--------+-----------+ | UserId | UserValue | +--------+-----------+ | 1 | 567890 | | 2 | 789032 | | 3 | 567342 | | 4 | 890678 | +--------+-----------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to select records that begin with a specific value −
mysql> select *from DemoTable690 where UserValue LIKE '567%';
This will produce the following output −
+--------+-----------+ | UserId | UserValue | +--------+-----------+ | 1 | 567890 | | 3 | 567342 | +--------+-----------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
