It would be useful to know how far you have got, and where you
got stuck.<br>
<br>
Are you able to run queries at all - or is it this specific
query you are having difficulty with?<br>
<br>
Is your problem with the query, or with the Java API?<br>
<br>
What did you try, and how did it fail?<br>
<br>
We need to know the answers to these questions so we can try
to explain what to do in terms you are likely to understand.<br>
<br>
When people have problems with the contains function it is
often because they tried to guess what it did instead of
reading the specification; the behaviour of a function can
sometimes be guessed from its name, but not always.<br>
