Is there a way to use like to search various fields at one time. For example I want the search field to search by name or area or organisation. If the (minimum)three letter string matches any of these I want the record to show. $search_field is my textbox $query = "SELECT * FROM sheet1 WHERE 'name' LIKE '$search_field%'"; but really I want it to do the folowing. $query = "SELECT * FROM sheet1 WHERE 'name' or 'area or 'organisation LIKE '$search_field%'"; Cheers, R. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
