Hi All,

How do you escape special characters in a query within MapInfo? E.g. How
would I select all records where a field contained the percent symbol? I
believe that in standard SQL you can specify an escape character to use with
each query, e.g. 

SELECT * FROM SOME_TABLE WHERE SOME_FIELD LIKE '%20X%%' ESCAPE 'X';

 to select all records containing 20%. This doesn't seem to work in MI.

TIA,

Keith
