How to write Case Sensitive Query for MS Access?

Question

I want to know the Select Query for MS Access with case sensitive.

I have two values for VitualMonitorName as below

VCode VirtualMonitorName
Row 1 (1         


        

Answer 1

Using only built-in functions, add an additional custom column in the query design view:

location: InStr(1,[VCode],"VM1",0)

the zero parameter requests binary compare (case sensitive) when finding location of "VM1" within [VCode]

set the criteria in that column to >0 so only records with non-zero location in the vcode matching Like "*vm*" contain the exact VM1 string -

The WHERE clause looks like:

WHERE (((VirtualMaster.VCode) Like "\*vm*") AND ((InStr(1,[VCode],"VM1",0))>0));
