Try it Yourself

To see how SQL works, you can copy the SQL statements below and paste them into the textarea, or you can make your own SQL statements.

SELECT * FROM customers

SELECT CompanyName, ContactName FROM customers

SELECT * FROM customers WHERE companyname LIKE 'a%'

SELECT CompanyName, ContactName FROM customers WHERE CompanyName > 'a'

 When using SQL on text data, "alfred" is greater than "a" (like in a dictionary).

SELECT CompanyName, ContactName FROM customers WHERE CompanyName > 'g' AND ContactName > 'g'

Top of Form

SELECT * FROM customers
