sorry i missed this one. ojb does not change the parameter of the criteria, so imo this is simply an sql-problem.

Thanks Jakob,
But I want to find objects that contain the actual '%' character, I don't want to search for objects using the '%' as the one or more wildcard.
The addLike("attribute","P%") will return all records starting with the letter 'P'. So this query will search using the '%' as the normal sql wildcard, it won't query for items that actually contain the '%' character.

I would like to perform a query where a description could have a '%' or an '_'. Is this possible using QueryByCriteria?
Example: ID DESCRIPTION ------- -------------------- 10000 40% Member Discount 10001 Online Discount
I'd like to be able to search using a like statement similar to: "Where Description like '%\%%' ESCAPE '\'"
The current implementation will just strip off the escape character, resulting in passing my literal '\%' being pass as a wildcard.
Thanks in advance.
