Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a way to use select statement for a field which don't contain some string value.
I need to look after a particular string word in a string expression for example i want to select values where the field does not contain the word 'happy'.
Is there a way to do that ?
Thanksfully.
It's easy to do, just keep in mind that it needs to do a full table scan, therefore it won't be very fast.
select myTable where !(myTable.MyField like '*hello*');
i was looking for strContains or strFind or strScan but this way is easier thank you.
