System - AIX
OS release - 5.3.0.0
jBase - 5.019 (patch 0354)

I have found a strange problem with the JBASE SELECT command. It will
not find ID's with an X in them.

For example edit these ID's into any file (create a file called
TEST.FILE first if you don't want to edit a real file).

1234X5678
I3K3X000230

Now do this select...

SELECT TEST.FILE WITH @ID LIKE ...1234X5678...

There will be no items selected. Try with the other ID - you get no
items selected.

The only workaround I have found so far is to do this...

SELECT TEST.FILE WITH @ID LIKE ...1234...X...5678...

or this SELECT TEST.FILE WITH @ID LIKE ...1234...X5678... (so this
seems to indicate that its the part of the key appended before the X
that's causing the problem).

Then the select works. Why does it not work properly without doing
that?
