How do i search from serialize field in mysql database?

Question

How do i search from serialize field in mysql database except mysql like statement?

The data is:

a:9:{s:2:"m1";s:4:"1217";s:2:"m2";s:8:"9986-961";s:2:"m3";s:19:"1988-03-07 00:00:00";s:2:"m4";s:0:"";s:2:"m5";s:0:"";s:2:"m6";s:0:"";s:2:"m7";s:3:"104";s:2:"m8";s:6:"150000";s :2:"m9";s:18:"Ok Then, Yes It Is";}

I need the row in which the m9 value is 'Yes It Is'. I do not want to use mysql 'like' statement.

I have tried:

SELECT * FROM table WHERE field like '%Yes It Is%'

Can you please help.

Answer 1

Have you tried the following:

SELECT * FROM table WHERE field like '%"m9";s:18:"Ok Then, Yes It Is";%'

?

But in fact if you want to search in such data, you should simple create proper structure of your table and not to put all serialized data in one column
