i have the following cod ethat i am using:update barcode

set borrower_type = '1'
from barcode, ##progs
where ##progs.student_id = barcode.student_id and
((##progs.aos_code like '11%')or (##progs.aos_code like '12%')
or (##progs.aos_code like '13%') or (##progs.aos_code like '14%'))
and ((##progs.attend_mode = '01') or (##progs.attend_mode is null))

is their an easier way to write the where part of the statement, instead of writing out
'##progs.attend_mode = n' for every criteria. the next update has 10 different combinations.

Thanxs
