Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2012 12:23:40 +0100 (BST)
Message-ID: <1347535420.27469.YahooMailNeo@web29502.mail.ird.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hello everyone!

Below you can find the problem I'm dealing with.
I'd appreciate your help.

Thank you!!


- A description of what you are trying to achieve and what results you expect.:
I'd like to execute a query using the underscore as a pattern.
select id,etiqueta from limites_municipales where etiqueta like 'Garaf_a';
It should return some rows but it is not: 
 id | etiqueta
----+----------
(0 rows)

This is the content in the table:
palma=> select id,etiqueta from limites_municipales;
  id   |         etiqueta
-------+--------------------------
     0 | El Paso
 12743 | Tazacorte
 12744 | Los Llanos de Aridane
 12745 | Villa de Mazo
 12746 | Breña Baja
 12747 | Santa Cruz de la Palma
 12748 | Garafía
 12749 | San Andrés y Sauces
 12751 | Puntallana
 12741 | Puntagorda
 12742 | Tijarafe
 12975 | Breña Alta
 12976 | Fuencaliente de la Palma
 12837 |
 12846 |
 .....
 12910 |
 12750 | Barlovento
(38 rows)
