Good day all, I am trying to do a name search in a macro. I would like to be able to search on the first five characters of a 30 character varchar field. I am having difficulty making the search work.

     replace macro WageDetail2 (LastName varchar(30)) as
     (select
     WD.EmployeeLastName,
     WD.EmployeeFirstName,
     WD.EmployeeMiddleInitial,
     WD.SSN,
     WD.Cyear,
     WD.Cquarter,
     WD.EAN,
     WD.UnitNumber,
     EN.EmployerName,
     WD.UsedInClaimFlag,
     WD.Wages,
     WD.Hours,
     WD.OfficerFlag
     from uitables.WageDetail as WD
     inner join uitables.Employer as EN
     on WD.EAN = EN.EAN
     where WD.EmployeeLastName like ':LastName%'
     order by WD.SSN,WD.EAN,WD.Cyear,WD.Cquarter;)

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
