Re: use LOCATE() in SELECT * FROM WHERE LOCATE() statement?

Hello Matthias,

why you wanna use LOCATE (which returns the position of a searched string) if you already know the position?

Is the usage of e.g. the SUBSTRING function not appropriate for you. Something like:

SELECT * FROM T
WHERE substring("WORD", 5, 1) = 'o';

Florian
