I'm trying to locate data that contains these 3 characters *B*, but I am at a
loss as to how to enter this in a query criteria. I've tried entering it as
'*B*', but I get everything that has a B in it. I've used double quotes,
brackets, etc, but haven't been able to crack the code yet! Please help!
Thanks
 
SELECT tblTest.TestText
FROM tblTest
WHERE (((tblTest.TestText) Like "*[*]B[*]*"));
