Mark,
My experience is mainly Oracle but it may help. I would expect you to
have to include the ' in quotes i.e. '''.
If I read your statement correctly I would expect something like the
following to work.
select * from files where location = '\\\\\\\\192.168.0.100\\\\clients\\\\o''
'orielly\\\\file%'
It gets more interesting if you want to find two quotes (''). You will have to
experiment.
Good luck Bob
