Subject: Selecting all variations of job title in a list
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:33:07 -0800 (PST)
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

Companies can have slightly different titles for the same job; for example
(using abbreviations). 'Asst Gen Mgr.', 'Env Mgr,', 'Gen Mgr,'. 'Mgr,',
'Plant Mgr.'

I want to select all people table rows that contain these varieties. I know
the 'like' operator uses '%' as a wildcard, but is not accepted in an 'in'
list.

Is there a way to use a multicharacter wildcard in an 'in' list?

TIA,

Rich
