This seems to work just fine for me... >>> name = '%raj%' >>> test = "SELECT * FROM tb_name WHERE firstname LIKE '%s'" % name >>> print test SELECT * FROM tb_name WHERE firstname LIKE '%raj%' -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] n.org]On Behalf Of gregarican Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 11:34 AM To: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: MSSQL LIKE and IN statements in ADO problem Can't you get rid of the Create Parameter part and directly pass along the value you are looking for? Something like... name = 'raj' cmd.CommandText= \ "SELECT * FROM tb_name WHERE firstname LIKE %%%s" % name This way the value of the name variable gets passed along when the CommandText method is invoked.
