 I am curious if there is an available syntax similar to select * from tablename where description like 'text%'.  I want to only pull out item records that have a description starting with a few particular characters.  Any help would be appreciated.

There's no problem with LIKE anyvalue, and you can even use the LOWER function to catch both C and c like this:

SELECT Sales.RefNumber,Sales.BillAddressAddr1,Sales.Type,Sales.TxnDate FROM Sales
WHERE Sales.BillAddressAddr1 = 'Customer Name'
AND Sales.TxnDate <= {d '2006-04-09'} AND {fn LCASE(Sales.Type)} LIKE 'c%' ORDER BY RefNumber

Tthe following query shows how a like "i%" works to find "Invoice" type sales:

SELECT Sales.RefNumber,Sales.BillAddressAddr1,Sales.Type,Sales.TxnDate FROM Sales
where {fn LCASE(Sales.Type)} LIKE 'i%' ORDER BY RefNumber
