How does one search for CHAR(13, CHAR(10), CHAR(9) in a field , using SELECT and LIKE ...
select * from <tablename> where <fieldname> like '%char(13%'
doesnt work ...

There must be an escape character before the char(13)
Any ideas ?
thanks
John Field
 

select *
from <tablename>
where <fieldname> like '%' + char(13) + '%'
