I have a data item (stored as a varchar) that looks like this:

  Mel\'nikova

fieldname='Mel\'nikova' doesn't match it.  Neither does 
fieldname='Mel\\\'nikova'.  fieldname='Mel%nikova' does produce a match, 
and so does fieldname='Mel__nikova' (which leads me to believe that 
mysql treats \' as two characters, rather than as an escaped character).

Is there some way to match this string without resorting to wild cards?

Thanks
