Thanks Marco, given the nature of the data, don't really need the ";" in
the like statement.

Since we are using SEQUEL, modified the statement a bit:

select * from mytable2, mytable1 where myfield1 like concat('*',
concat(trim(flda), '*')) -- SEQUEL converts the * to %

You're right, seems.

Maybe is safer (myfield1 like concat('%;', concat(trim(flda), '%')) or
myfield1 like concat('%', concat(trim(flda), ';%')))?

unless myfield1 contains only one element.

I ran this on the development box:
select *
from mytable1
where regex_instr(myfield1,
select listagg(trim(flda),'|') from mytable2

I got error "REGEX_INSTR in *LIBL type *N not found"

I gave you two different single SQL statements...

But if you can actually use SQL, I don't know why you'd ask for it.

But SQL scripts are not permitted in our Production environment.
They
use
sql interface SEQUEL software (by fortra) , which does not allow

of

commands in standard sql. So if someone has any suggestions for
doing
this
with a single sql statement, I can try to see if it can be done
in
SEQUEL.

There is no unique key.

When I said "temporary" I actually meant that is the final

Are there any other fields in MYTABLE? Particularly a unique
key?

with unpivot as (
select key, varchar(element, 15) as f1
from mytable, table(systools.split(myfield1, ';'))
)
select *
from mytable1 t1
where t1.key in (select u.key from mytable2 t2 inner join
unpivot
u
on
u.f1
= m2.flda)

If there's no unique key, you could use RRN.

Generally, you don't want to create a temporary table unless
you
have
multiple processes running over it.
Yes, this will take more memory, but usually less time.

I have a Table (MYTABLE1) with millions of rows with a field
FLD1
(256
chars). I have another table (MYTABLE2) with about 100 rows
with a
field
FLDA (15 chars).

I want to get all records from MYTABLE1 where FLD1 has FLDA.
If FLDA has a value of 'ABCD' then
Select * from MYTABLE1 where FLD1 like %ABCD%
would probably do the job. But I need to do it for FLDA
values
of
all
the
records in MYTABLE2.

I know I haven't explained it properly so let me give an
example:

FIELD1 in MYTABLE1:
Row 1 - ABCDEF;123456;GH;78
Row 2 - CDEFG;345678;
Row 3 - 345678;EWRT;9888
Row 4 - 85465;ASDFGT;QWERTY;85656

FLDA in MYTABLE2:
Row 1 - 123456
Row 2 - 345678

The final sql should return Rows 1,2,3 from MYTABLE1.

TIA
