When querying an Oracle database using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle (MSDAORA) and the ODBC.NET Framework Data Provider, using the LIKE clause to query values in fixed-length fields may not return all expected matches. The reason is that when Oracle matches values for fixed-length fields in a LIKE clause, it matches the entire length of the string, including any padding trailing spaces. For example, if a table in an Oracle database contains a field named "Field1" that is defined as char(3), and you enter the value "a" into a row of that table, the following code will not return the row.
string queryString = "SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE Field1 LIKE ?"; OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(queryString, connection); command.Parameters.Add("@p1", OleDbType.Char, 3).Value = "a"; OleDbDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
This is because Oracle stores the column value as "a " (padding "a", with trailing spaces, to the fixed field length of 3), which Oracle does not treat as a match for the parameter value of "a" in the case of a LIKE comparison of fixed-length fields.
To resolve this problem, append a percentage ("%") wildcard character to the parameter value ("a%"), or use an SQL = comparison instead.
The following example creates multiple instances of OracleParameter through the OracleParameterCollection within the OracleDataAdapter. These parameters are used to select data from the database and place the data in the DataSet. This example assumes that a DataSet and an OracleDataAdapter have already been created by using the appropriate schema, commands, and connection.
