Answer / mdvasanth86

Anand is right.


SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name LIKE 'C!%'
ESCAPE'!';


If you want to use % or _ as part of your like clause,
you must have an escape character before each occurrence of
% or _ and define what the escape character is like above.

So, an escape character before the % or _ will make it part
of the string rather than a wildcard character(S).

C% will work for all the cases. Even if the data contains
%, Using C% will fetch that too.
