SOUNDS-LIKE is useful, but there might be instances where it does not return every row that seems to satisfy the condition. PROCLIB.STAFF has an employee with the last name SANDERS and an employee with the last name SANYERS . The algorithm does not find SANYERS , but it does find SANDERS and SANDERSON .


   title "Employees Whose Last Name Sounds Like 'Sanders'";
   select *
      from proclib.staff
      where lname=*"Sanders"
      order by 2;
