RE: SQL wildcard search

["Elvis Budimlic" <ebudimlic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For upper case Rick suggested:

Ucase(Field1) like '%MOR%' or UCASE(Field2) like '%MOR%' or UCASE(Field3)
like '%MOR%'

no 'ands' needed.  

Field1 like '%mor%' or Field2 like '%mor%' or Field3 like '%mor%'

if you want matches without case sensitivity, you're either looking
for more ORs or some sort of conversion to uppercase.

others may help in that respect
