>In my view designer on the filter tab I set my criteria to 'like'. When I search for example the letter 'O' to find state beginning with 'O', I don't get anything, but yet there are state such as Oklahoma, Ohio etc.. in my table. Can anyone help me please?

You need to use the proper templating for the LIKE clause; take a look at the documentation for the SELECT SQL topic in the on-line help. LIKE uses a wild carding scheme; the
% matches 0 or more undefined characters, and an
_ matches exactly one character. in a LIKE clause:
O% matches anything beginning with "O"
_O% matches any string whose second character is "O"
%O matches anything that ends with "O"
O%K_ matches any string beginning with "O", and whose second to last character is "K"
