>Hi,

>LIKE "A%" IGNORE CASE - InstantDB
>LIKE 'A*' - ACCESS

>So that we must use the alternative
>(ACCESS)
>"INSTR(1,field,data,1)<>0";
>(InstantDB)
>"CONTAINS("field,data")=1";
>
>However, when it come the case of
>LIKE "%A" IGNORE CASE
>
>In ACCESS, we can still use
>"Right("sField,data.length()) = value;
>
>BUT how about InstantDB, is there any equivalent functions?
>
>And I am really puzzled, why the LIKE keywords cannot be used???
