Hi,
I need to do a regex search, but I have to also escape the string so it will not blow the SQL statement to pieces. The problem is that I can't seem to figure out how to use the "?" or "*" characters in the regex search, because they always get escaped.
Example input: m*ller's
Generate query:
...LIKE '(?i)" & ValentinaEscapeString(myInputString, TRUE) & "'"
which results in:
LIKE '(?i)m\*ller\'s'
That's ok, since the last parameter tells the function to escape for regex, like stated in the docs. But how can I use the '"*" as a regex operator? Do I need to set the parameter to FALSE and only quote quotes? Then the documentation does not make any sense. Or what is it that I don't get?
Martin.
