SQL wildcards SQL wildcards are used to search for data within a table, wildcard characters are used

with the SQL LIKE operator. Example of % Wildcard SELEC ! "#$% Students W&E#E 'ame LIKE ()in%(* +bo)e SQL statement selects all students with a 'ame startin, with -)in-. #I% in SQL

What is LI'Q3 Lan,ua,e Inte,rated Quer/ 0LI'Q2, is a component released within the .'E 4.5 "ramewor6. It is one of the most powerful features of .'E 4.5. It ser)es the purpose of 7uer/in, ob8ects. LI'Q comprises a series of operators, which are used to 7uer/, filter and pro8ect data in arra/s, enumerable classes, relational databases and 9%L. In order to 7uer/ data, the data needs to be encapsulated as an ob8ect. In case the data source is not an ob8ect, it first needs to be con)erted to an ob8ect in order for LI'Q to 7uer/ it. LI'Q has its own Quer/ :rocessin, En,ine. he information returned b/ a LI'Q 7uer/ is a collection of in;memor/ ob8ect which ma/ be enumerated. he LI'Q concept treats the data source as an $b8ect, rather than a <atabase. So we ma/ sa/, its an ob8ect that is 7ueried. LI'Q ma/ 7uer/ an/ t/pe of data source, li6e. LI'Q 7uer/in, SQL 0%S SQL Ser)er supported2.
