Hi

For the below data (well..there are many more nodes in the team foundation server table which i need to refer to..below is just a sample)

Nodes
------------------------
\node1\node2\node3\
\node1\node2\node5\
\node1\node2\node3\node4

I was wondering if i can apply something like (below query does not give the required results)

select * from table_a where nodes like '\node1\node2\%\'

to get the below data

\node1\node2\node3\
\node1\node2\node5\

and something like (below does not give the required results)

select * from table_a where nodes like '\node1\node2\%\%\'

to get

\node1\node2\node3\
\node1\node2\node5\
\node1\node2\node3\node4

Can the above be done with like operator? Pls. suggest.

Thanks
