Indeed, though to be honest LIKE could cause peformance issues depending on record size,
Maybe more advanced search needs to be taken out of the DB and into a search engine.

Now how do I find all the data that either has 'more', 'messages', 'to', 'find', 'more messages', 'messages to', 'to find', 'more messages to','message to find', or 'more message to find' in it? I know this is invalid %COLUMN% LIKE 'MORE MESSAGES TO FIND', but is there a way to do it? Thank you.
