Select * from tbl_emp where emp_name = "Rocky"
This query would fetch all rows from the table that have employee name as Rocky

For example, a user might want to find all rows in a table that have the first name "John", or find all phone numbers in the 415 area code. Multiple filters can be combined to provide an even more concise list, or can be broadened to find items that meet any of a set of criteria.
