    Search for partial field

    I am trying to create a query to search for all records containing a specific string as a portion of 1 field.



    How would I get all entries containing "Tick" when some fields will have "The Tick..." or "Tick...", etc.

    I have tried all the operators I can think of and have not conjured the correct Google-fu to figure it out. I tried searching on here, but the same googly limitations hampered me.

    Thank you in advance,
    JF

    If you just want to find "Tick" then i'm sure:

    WHERE Field1 = 'Tick'

    If you want to find all the fields which contain something to do with "Tick" then:

    WHERE Field1 like '*Tick*'

    Good Luck
