Posted on by D.Clark 6

Hello!  I simply want to pull only records from my SQL server table where the division has the word "commercial" in it.  What is the syntax in the Items property of my canvas app?

    Hey!

    This should work:

     

    Filter( SQLTale_Name, Find("commercial", Divison))

     

    Or:

     

    Filter( SQLTale_Name, "commercial" in Divison)

     

    Or: 

     

    Filter( SQLTale_Name, "commercial" exactin Divison)

    Thank you so much for the quick response, @Goncalo!  I used the "in" syntax, and it works perfectly!  Thanks, again!
