Description
The STARTSWITH() function returns .T. (True) if the character string <expC1> starts with the specified character string, <expC2>.
A case-sensitive search is performed. The current SET EXACT setting has no effect.
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
| <expC1> | The character string to be searched. |
| <expC2> | The character string to search for. |
Example
open database southwind use orders list for startswith(customerid,"BON")
