> # Like Predicate Escape Characters

> In a LIKE predicate, the percent sign (%) matches zero or more of any character and the underscore (_) matches any one character. To match an actual percent sign or underscore in a LIKE predicate, an escape character must precede the % or _. The escape sequence that defines the LIKE predicate escape character is:

>     {escape 'escape-character'}

> where `escape-character` is any character supported by the data source.

> Example:

>     SELECT Name FROM Customers
>     WHERE Name LIKE '\%AAA%' {escape '\'}

> Returns all the customers for which the name starts with "%AAA".
