Answer 1

you should use this :

   DataModule.Table.Filtered := False;
   DataModule.Table.Filter := 'Field_Name' + ' LIKE ' + QuotedStr(Edt_SearchByCode.Text +'%');
   DataModule.Table.Filtered := True;

and will work like a Magic and no use of TQuery any more .... and if you want Matching does not take case-sensitivity into account. you should use this code instead:

   DataModule.Table.Filtered := False;
   DataModule.Table.FilterOptions := [foCaseInsensitive];
   DataModule.Table.Filter := 'Field_Name' + ' LIKE ' + QuotedStr(Edt_SearchByCode.Text +'%');
   DataModule.Table.Filtered := True;
