Not having the SQL92 spec at hand, I can only guess that this syntax is a proprietary extension to SQL, much like SQL Server 7.0's contains() predicate*. Whatever suits your application, really, but if you're thinking about portability, "like" is the way to go.
Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware that 'containing' was not standard. ( Using Interbase which is cross platform ). ------- Regards, Graham Chiu gchiu<at>compkarori.co.nz
