Hi! May be some can help me. We are using the ILIKE operator to filter data. When we use a couple of "%" at a certain point the db stops filtering correctly. We started with *ILIKE '%guate%' *it found 7 records, then we changed to *ILIKE '%guate%**com% *it found 1 record (which is ok)... finally we changed to *ILIKE '%guate%mo%**com%**' *and now it didn't find anything :'( Please see the attached examples... *A*) sql>SELECT DISTINCT nts_area_name FROM sb_rmsv.nts_nt_sum_report WHERE nts_area_name *ILIKE '%guate%'*; +---------------------------+ | nts_area_name | +===========================+ | Guatemala | | Guatemala-Mobile | | Guatemala-Mobile Comcel | | Guatemala-Mobile Movistar | | Guatemala-Mobile PCS | | Guatemala-Telgua | | Guatemala-Telefonica | +---------------------------+ *B*) sql>SELECT DISTINCT nts_area_name FROM sb_rmsv.nts_nt_sum_report WHERE nts_area_name *ILIKE '%guate%**com%;* +-------------------------+ | nts_area_name | +=========================+ | Guatemala-Mobile Comcel | +-------------------------+ *C*) sql>SELECT DISTINCT nts_area_name FROM sb_rmsv.nts_nt_sum_report WHERE nts_area_name *ILIKE '%guate%mo%**com%**'*; +---------------+ | nts_area_name | +===============+ +---------------+ 0 tuples
