How do I check Mysql row for text?

Question

I'm trying to check if a row in my table contains a specific string. If it does, I want to get the user who has the specific string. My table looks like this: The picture

I want to check the String "Peter", in the Address column/row. How do I scan through it, and find it? Then after doing that, how would I check for the ID of the user who owns the String? I appreciate any help I can get.

Answer 1

Basics od mysql. Wildcard % tells db engine that we expect some characters before and after 'Peter' string.

SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE Address LIKE '%Peter%'

Matches:

"Peter's address"
"It is Peter's address"
"Address of Peter"

Answer 2

编写SQL命令以扫描数据。针对您的问题的命令看起来像::

select * from Mytable where address="peter";
