I am trying to do a select statement in Microsoft SQL server management studio. The data looks like this:
My select statement is:
SELECT * FROM OSUSR_W7I_INVENTORYCHANGELOG
WHERE OBJECTTYPEID = 3
and CREATEDBY is null
and TEXT = 'State changed from ''Awaiting Prep'' to ''Import Error'''
But this brings back no results, despite there being lots of records with this text.
I was able to retrieve some data by using this statement:
SELECT * FROM OSUSR_W7I_INVENTORYCHANGELOG
WHERE OBJECTTYPEID = 3
and CREATEDBY is null
and TEXT like '%Awaiting Prep%'
and TEXT like '%Import Error%'
but unfortunately it brings back too many results because it is bringing back data that states: 'State changed from 'Import Error' to 'Awaiting Prep'' where I am only looking for 'State changed from 'Awaiting Prep' to 'Import Error''
Please can anyone help. From reading other posts putting a double quote in should solve the issue of the single quotes but in this instance it doesn't work. Many thanks
You can combine your LIKE to one using % as placeholders, instead of:
do:
