Hey everyone,
I'm attempting to delete records within my database but I'm having problems writing the query. What I need to do is delete records from my database that, within a field in this record, have a substring that I will pass to the mysql command. So for example,
A table has one field called filePath.
Example records:
C:\New Folder\test.txt
C:\New Folder\test1.txt
C:\New Folder\test1.txt
C:\Other Folder\test.txt
C:\Other Folder\test1.txt
C:\Other Folder\test2.txt
I would like to send a command that will delete records within the table where a substring of the filePath field matches 'C:\New Folder'. In this case, the top 3 records would be deleted.
Anyone know the proper syntax for a statement like this?
Thanks in advance.
