but i got the following error:
#1054 - Unknown column '%ab383292%' in 'where clause'

Post your table name and fieldnames

Why does your query not have any spaces between words? Also, values should be quoted to stop MySQL treating them as table fields.

SELECT `file_title` FROM `uploads` WHERE `string_file` LIKE '%ab383292%'

here i have the following iformation for table
name => uploads
fields are in the following:
id -> primary key
uploaded_by -> varchar
string -> varchar
file_title -> varchar
file_size -> varchar
file_path -> varchar
..

Lik bb says, e.g.:

SELECT `file_title` FROM `uploads` WHERE `string` LIKE '%ab383292%'
