Hello All,

I have to give [dbo]. string in my LIKE clause.

Here is the code

CASE WHEN Wait_Query LIKE '%[dbo].%'

SQL is treating [dbo]. as dbo. It is ignoring square brackets. Can you please tell me how to correct it?

Thanks,
-S

You need to escape the brackets

CASE WHEN Wait_Query LIKE '%[[dbo]].%'
