Hi All, I am wondering if someone could help me figure out some SQL code.

For an assignment question on a SQL database i need to return any names which have 'an' in them e.g Andy but I don't want to return any names with and e.g Jones and Co.

I understand the like '%an%' but it is also returning the 'and' strings.  How can I get around this?

Many thanks

Hi All, As the title says I am hoping to find out how i can write sql code that will return any words that have the characters 'an' in them but not return the word 'and' as well.  I can manage to get all words with an by using %an% but it is also returning the word 'and' along with it.  Can anyone help?

Thanks
