The format of the QUERY function formula is:
=QUERY(data, query, [headers])
Include the WHERE clause and starts with and ends with operators in the query part of the formula.
Here are some examples:
Example
Assume column B of the range B2 to E15 has names of students.
Say you want to extract data of students whose first name is John.
The QUERY function formula with where clause and starts with operator is:
=QUERY(B2:E15, "select * where B starts with 'John'")
Here, select * means select everything.
where B starts with "John" means the cells in column B should start with "John".
The formula will extract all the data, corresponding to the cells in column B that fulfill the above condition.
Example
Assume column C of the range A2 to C20 has mobile numbers.
Further assume that you want to extract all mobile numbers that end with 33.
The QUERY function formula with where clause and ends with operator is:
=QUERY(B2:E15, "select C where C ends with '33'")
Note that this example extracts data only from column C, if the mobile number ends with 33.
