title: Mysql, querying varchar column with like gives no result
body: <p>In Mysql database, I have a table. Columns are id (int), name (varchar 40). The name column has a couple of cells with just 'NO' strings stored. </p>
  
  <p>Why do I get nothing in return if I query something like below?</p>
  
  <pre><code>select * 
  from TABLE_NAME 
  where name like '%NO%'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or </p>
  
  <pre><code>select * 
  from TABLE_NAME 
  where name = 'NO'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help for the drowning?</p>
