select from pipe-delimited field

Hello all,

I am trying to do a SELECT operation with a WHERE condition. However, the
column with which I am trying to do the comparison has several values which
are pipe-delimited. I want to return a match(true) if the WHERE condition
matches any of the bar-delimited values.

For example, SELECT id WHERE synonyms = 'word';

Here synonyms is a pipe-delimited field and I want to match "word" with any
of the values of the synonyms fields.

Thanks in advance.

Neel
