Hi Support,

Can you please advise how can I specify %?% where ? can exist anywhere in the search string.

eg. select * from filea where fieldA = '%?%'

thankyou.

Phil,  

On the field descriptor for "fieldA" specify the WildcardPrependedField as shown here:

This field class automatically prepends a % to whatever the user enters effectively letting you search for a string anywhere in a field. 

NOTE:  You can also specify a DEFAULT value for the user using this syntax:
Select * from x.y  where FIELDA LIKE ?{%}      

% will be placed in the user entry.
