MySQL query to conduct a basic search for a specific last name in a column
You can use LIKE operator to conduct a basic search for last name. Let us first create a table: −
mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> CustomerName varchar(100), -> CustomerAge int -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.77 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John Doe',34);
Query OK, 1 row affected (1.32 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('David Miller',24);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('Bob Doe',27);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('Carol Taylor',29);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
Output
This will produce the following output −
+--------------+-------------+ | CustomerName | CustomerAge | +--------------+-------------+ | John Doe | 34 | | David Miller | 24 | | Bob Doe | 27 | | Carol Taylor | 29 | +--------------+-------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to search for last name from a column −
mysql> select *from DemoTable where CustomerName LIKE '%Doe%';
Output
This will produce the following output −
+--------------+-------------+ | CustomerName | CustomerAge | +--------------+-------------+ | John Doe | 34 | | Bob Doe | 27 | +--------------+-------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
