I need to select rows from a table that contains a substring.
for example, the column contains the follwoing values:

col_name
---------------
LoggedOn - 1.3.4.5
LoggedOff - 1.4.5.0
LoggedOn - 1.3.5.2

I need to select rows which contain 'loggedOn' value (I mean the first and the last one).

Any idea is appreciated

SELECT *
  FROM yourtable
 WHERE col_name LIKE 'LoggedOn%';

is one way to do this.
