You need quotes around john:
select column1,column2 etc
from table
where customer_name != 'john'
Assuming SQL Server you will need single quotes normally

Ok, I sort of assumed you were using SQL Server and customer_name was a standard varchar column, in which case the != syntax will work fine. I have to say, its difficult to give good answers to poorly defined questions.
1. What type of RDBMS are you using? SQL Server? What version?
2. Please post your table definition.
If the customer_name is a char rather than a varchar there will be trailing spaces to pad to the length of the field, eg if customer_name is char(5) then your query should read != 'john '
While NOT LIKE '%john%' as suggested by Krish -KP should work it will not use any indexes on the customer_name column so there could be performance issues.
If you can supply this info then someone will be able to answer your question, but a good alternative is to try reading the the help, thats why it was written

Check this ....
<br />
SELECT data FROM table WHERE customer_name NOT LIKE '%john%' <br />
hope your customer_name column is of Char datatype or contain john along with some more characters

what I have found i am sending,
---------------------------------------
CrystalReport1 report=new CrystalReport1();
report.ReportOptions.EnableSaveDataWithReport = false;
CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo myLogin;
CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo oCRConnectionInfo = new CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo();
foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table myTable in report.Database.Tables)
{
myLogin = myTable.LogOnInfo ;
//myLogin.ConnectionInfo.ServerName="(local)";
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.ServerName=".";
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.UserID = "sa" ;
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.Password = "123456" ;
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName="temp";
myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myLogin) ;
myTable.Location.Substring(myTable.Location.LastIndexOf(".") + 1);
}
OleDbConnection oleConn = new OleDbConnection("Provider=sqloledb; data source = .; initial catalog = inventory; user id = sa; password = 123456");
oleConn.Open();
OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter("select * from student",oleConn);
DataSet ds=new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds);
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument myReportDocument;
myReportDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
myReportDocument.Load(@"C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\temp\CrystalReport1.rpt",CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy);
myReportDocument.SetDataSource(ds);
this.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource =myReportDocument;
CrystalReportViewer1.DataBind();
CrystalReportViewer1.RefreshReport();
CrystalReportViewer1.DisplayToolbar = true;
CrystalReportViewer1.DisplayGroupTree = false;
oleConn.Close();
I did not got any error but my crystal Report Viewer contains no data i.e. it contains only Crystal Report Toolbar ,no data(Blank Report)
If I use F11 to run step by step ,I found the execution did not enter in the following Code.
foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table myTable in report.Database.Tables)
{
myLogin = myTable.LogOnInfo ;
//myLogin.ConnectionInfo.ServerName="(local)";
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.ServerName=".";
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.UserID = "sa" ;
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.Password = "123456" ;
myLogin.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName="temp";
myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myLogin) ;
myTable.Location.Substring(myTable.Location.LastIndexOf(".") + 1);
}
What urgent modifications I need to perform?
Help me.
I am using .Net version 2003.

I'm using MySql

If you are using SQL 2005, use the EXCEPT operator to find differences between entities.

Sorry, forgot to mention...
I'm using MySql...

What code have you tried?

Something like this...
Search from tableA where id NOT IN (search id that match between tableB and tableA)
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming that you are working with Sql Server, you may try
Select A.[ColumnName],B.[ColumnName2] from table1 A,table2 B
where A.[PKColumn] <> B.[FKColumn]

Hi,
Say I have the table below:
Tabl1
PKey ColA ColB ColC
1 a1 b1 c1
2 a1 b2 c2
3 a1 b3 c3
... a2 ...
...
... a3 ...
...
If I group by ColA with the select statement as follows:
SELECT<br />
ColA, MAX(ColB), <br />
FROM<br />
Tabl1<br />
GROUP BY<br />
ColA
If for example for a1 the MAX(ColB) is b2, THEN I would like to include ColC in the select statement such that for a1 the resulting row would be:
ColA ColB ColC
a1 b2 c2
What is the best way to do this?
TIA!
I am a SysAdmin, I battle my own daemons.

|
|
|
|
select b.*
from (
select ColA, Max(ColB) as MaxColB
from Tabl1
group by ColA
) as a
Tabl1 as b
on b.ColA = a.ColA
and b.ColB = a.ColB
order by b.ColA

Use the T-SQL REPLACE function to remove the literal string 'Record:' from your text.
Is it actually necessary to store the string 'Record:' in each record value? What purpose does it serve? It looks like your database design may be broken and could do with normalization.
