The problem is, this will do a row by row search and takes sometime.
Do this in Google for example, the return is blurringingly fast.
How can I optimize/write something to return records from a database using a wildcard, but at the same speed as something like a Google Search.
Need an optimization guru here? Atw?

Optimisation - studied and wrote about this during my studies in operational research. Studied the method employed by google, page ranking, could provide paper to you if interested.
