I'm trying to select a string that contains a single-quote, using the LIKE
operator. It works fine with EQ.
So if I do a SELECT FILE WITH FIELD EQ LLOYD'S , the select returns
exactly what I expect.
But if I do a SELECT FILE WITH FIELD LIKE ...LLOYD'S... it returns
pretty much the entire file
Consider trying...
SELECT FILE WITH FIELD LIKE LLOYD'S...

Hi,
This is why there are three types of string quote. You need
SELECT FILE WITH FIELD LIKE \...LLOYD'S...\
