I'm only a college student, so you'll forgive me if I'm wrong, but I think the SQL syntax you are
looking for is something like this:

SELECT column_name
FROM table_name
WHERE column_name LIKE 'S00_'
AND column_name IN ('S00A','SOOB','SOOC',...etc);

You've probably alreadly came up this one and was looking for something way more efficient and less of a hassle to write.

Hope that helped.

Hi,

WHERE column_name LIKE 'S00_'
AND column_name IN ('S00A','SOOB','SOOC',...etc);

Above syntax works but here I need to give all combinations ('S00A','S00B',....,'S00Z')

Is there better way of doing this

Thanks for the reply
