Using Stored Procedure variable in Like statement - sql

Question

I can't seem to properly use the LIKE statement using a variable from a stored procedure. I want to find all the rows from a table that start with the variable passed.
I am currently using the following query where #id is the value passed to the stored procedure as nvarchar(20). This works fine when the IDs completely match, but does not properly use the '%' appended. What is the proper way to complete this task?
SELECT * FROM Table WHERE id LIKE #id + '%'

Answer 1

This works for me:
declare #id nvarchar(20)
select #id = '1'
SELECT * FROM tab WHERE id LIKE #id + '%'

Answer 2

The query doesn't work if #id is null. So what you can do is set it to empty string if #id is null. Please try the following:
begin
declare #id nvarchar(20)
set #id = isnull(#id, '')
select * from table where id like #id + '%'
end
So in your procedure, adding the following line should work for your query:
set #id = isnull(#id, '')

Simple solution:
$search_q = '%' . $this_search_q. '%';
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM tbl_tablename WHERE tablecollumn LIKE :id");
$stmt ->bindParam(":id", $search_q );
$stmt->execute();
OR
$search_q = '%' . $this_search_q. '%';
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM tbl_tablename WHERE tablecollumn LIKE $search_q");
$stmt->execute();
