Us a WHERE clause to show events which contain two given text strings

This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Before you can do this exercise, you'll need to download and unzip this file . Once you've done this:

Go into SQL Server Management Studio;
Open the SQL file you've just unzipped (you can press CTRL + O to do this); then
Execute this script.

This will generate the database that you'll need to use in order to do this exercise (note that the database and script are only to be used for exercises published on this website, and may not be reused or distributed in any form without the prior written permission of Wise Owl).

Create a query which lists out all of the tblEvent events which include the word Teletubbies:

You should find there's one event (which is probably one more than you were expecting).

Now add an OR condition to your query so that it lists out all events whose:

Name includes Teletubbies; or
Name includes Pandy.

This should give you two rows:

A query showing the development of children's television ...

Save this query as Looby La La, then close it down.

You can unzip this file to see the answers to this exercise, although please remember this is for your personal use only.

select EventName, EventDate from tblEvent where EventName = '%Teletubbies%' and EventName = '%Pandy%' is not working for me

You need to put LIKE and not = when doing pattern matching.
