I'd like to retrieve records for both states: GA and NC from a database.
 
Here's my SQL Query: select clientname, businessname, city, state from Clients where state = 'ga' and state = 'nc'
 
This didn't return any records even though I got no error message. These records do exist. Can someone please help me to fix this SQL Query?

Don't think a stade can be equal  ga AND equal nc at the same time, but it could be = ga OR nc. Wink

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
