Subject Re: [firebird-support] What key word specifies a search for an entire word?
Author Clyde Eisenbeis
Not sure what pattern is.  If I am searching for two words I use OR or AND. 

"SELECT fstName, fiKeyID FROM Members WHERE lower(fstName) LIKE lower( @p0 ) AND lower(fstName) LIKE lower( @p1 ) "

I prefer the word LIKE.  Is easier to avoid errors vs. using '='.  Are there advantages to using '='?

Do you use pattern or simple string?

If it is simple string then better is using „=” instead of like.

 

"SELECT fstName, fiKeyID FROM Members WHERE lower(fstName) = lower( @p0 )"
