Hi Hasha,

 

You can just make a SOQL query with like %%  syntax

Let me be more clear

 

where i know that

 

                  select Name from Account where name like 's%' limit 10;

 

    will work

 

But in my case, String str='s';

 

          Now Can i run the same query by using the  str instead of the regular pattern
