For like we have %. for ex: if we give ad% it ll fetch all the records which starts with ad but i should use regexp_like. for regexp_like what can be used so that it acts as % for like. i cant use ^ad because from UI we ll give something like ad* to fetch.
Before query:select * from employee where fname like 'pr%';
Present query:select * from employee where regexp_like(fname ,'pr+');
for present query im getting the values which contains pr but i want to get values which starts with pr.
Testdata: if pr* is given then i should get program etc ie the value which starts with pr.
Try this one:
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE (fname, '^pr(*)');
This one also seems to work as far as I can tell:
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE (fname, '^pr.');
Or another one that works:
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE regexp_like(fname,'^pr');
Check below link regexp_like -

If still not able to reslove your issue then as pointed by Jeremy share test data and expected result. That will help to reslove.
Check below example
create table a
(b varchar2(150));
insert into a values ('Pravin');
insert into a values ('TestPravin');
select * from a where REGEXP_LIKE (B, '^Pra');
