Theo: nguyenhaidang.name.vn | 13/08/2026 - 08:38

 

i have a listview with search options with three fileds name,comment,description.i have implement the search options using this query.

 

 

SELECT OrganizationID,

Name,

DescriptionShort,

DescriptionLong, Comment,

DateUpdated,

FROM t_Organization

where t_Organization.Name like ''''%''''+@name+''''%''''

or t_Organization.DescriptionShort like ''''%''''+@name+''''%''''

or t_Organization.DescriptionLong like ''''%''''+@name+''''%''''

or t_Organization.Comment like ''''%''''+@name+''''%''''

ORDER BY Name

 

 

it works perfectly.but if when i add a extra string then no records are fetching.

 

like ''''player'''' search perfectly

like ''''play''''  search perfectly

like ''''pla'''' search perfectly

like ''''pl'''' search perfectly 

like ''''p'''' search perfectly 

 

but ''''Players'''' , not work

like ''''playerw'''' not work

 

like ''''playing'''' not work.

means when we add a extra string it does not work .

.how can i do this?

search will happen because play is common..

please  help me....how can i do this?

Here I have created sample that will help you out.

    IF ISNULL(@SearchName,'''''''') = ''''''''

    BEGIN

        SELECT * FROM #t_Organization

    END

    ELSE

    BEGIN

        DECLARE @Count INT;

        DECLARE @i  INT = 0

 

        WHILE (@i) < LEN(@SearchName)

        BEGIN     

            SELECT @Count = COUNT(*) FROM #t_Organization

            WHERE (Name LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName) - @i)  + ''''%'''')

            OR (DescriptionShort LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName) - @i)  + ''''%'''')

            OR (DescriptionLong LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName)- @i)  + ''''%'''')

            OR (Comment LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName) - @i)  + ''''%'''')

            IF @Count > 0

            BEGIN

                SELECT * FROM #t_Organization

                WHERE (Name LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName) - @i)  + ''''%'''')

                OR (DescriptionShort LIKE ''''%'''' + SUBSTRING(@SearchName,1,LEN(@SearchName) - @i)  + ''''%'''')
