Fetch Records from Comma Separated Values Using MySQL

Use FIND_IN_SET() instead of MySQL IN(). Let us first create a −

mysql> create table DemoTable1423
   -> (
   -> CountryName varchar(100)
   -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.51 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert −

mysql> insert into DemoTable1423 values('AUS,UK');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.08 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1423 values('US');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.21 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1423 values('AUS,UK,US');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)

Display all records from the table using select −

mysql> select * from DemoTable1423;

This will produce the following output −

+-------------+
| CountryName |
+-------------+
| AUS,UK      |
| US          |
| AUS,UK,US   |
+-------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Here is the query to fetch records using FIND_IN_SET()−

mysql> select * from DemoTable1423 where find_in_set('US',CountryName);

This will produce the following output −

+-------------+
| CountryName |
+-------------+
| US          |
| AUS,UK,US   |
+-------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
