Try this:

<%if Name istart "J"%>
Your name start with J
<%else%>
Your name doesn't start with J
<%endif%>

What version of LinksSQL are you using?

Try this:

<%if Name start "J"%>
Your name start with J
<%else%>
Your name doesn't start with J
<%endif%>

Hi - i use all alternatives:
- start "J"
- istart "J"
- start 'J'
- etc...

But nothing works!

We are using Version Loinks SQL 2.1.2

Hi Coyu,

If I were not wrong, this version has not yet support this opterator "start" in template yet. I see that it is in version 2.2.0.
