Contrary to syntax diagram in documentation, ESCAPE clause does NOT work with GLOB (or [icu ext] REGEXP) [or, rather, "not implemented" - it would work if 3-arg GLOB function were provided - but it is not]. And it won't solve OP problem anyway. FWIW, I think this should work: SELECT FROM t WHERE foo GLOB replace(replace(replace(?, '[','[[]'),'*','[*]'),'?','[?]')||'*' (but, of course, it looks clumsy and not future-safe). _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
