    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.ideablade.com/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=349" rel="nofollow">TimClamp</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 879<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 08-Jul-2008 at 12:10pm<br /><br />When I create an RdbQuery that contains a StartsWith condition, and the value used in the operation contains a '&#091;' character, such as 'AABAAAAABAAAAA&#091;', I receive an error down in the bowels of System.Data.LikeNode that states: <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV><EM><FONT color=#ff0000>System.Data.EvaluateException was unhandled: the string pattern is AABAAAAABAAAAA&#091;&#091;&#091;&#093;&#093;% invalid</FONT></EM></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><DIV><EM><FONT color=#ff0000></FONT></EM>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV><FONT color=#000000>It appears that DevForce is trying to escape the '&#091;' character as required by the datacolumn expression in System.Data, however it appears that the escape sequence is failing miserably somewhere. </FONT></DIV><span style="font-size:10px"><br /><br />Edited by TimClamp - 08-Jul-2008 at 1:34pm</span>]]>
