How do I accomplish wildcards in report parameters? With my requirement, I cannot simply concatenate '%' + @in_value + '%' because each @in_value might have a different set of wildcards.
Example:
SQL STATEMENT:
SELECT item FROM items_table WHERE item LIKE @in_value
PARAMETER:
@in_value Specify Values Display Value Actual Value Bikes B1-____ Cars CAR% Toasters T_-kitchen
As you can see, depending on which item is chosen, the wildcard is different. Some are % and some are placements of _.
Of course, due to parameterization, these will not be parsed for their wildcards. I believe they are only handled as literals.
How can I allow the report to pass in wildcards?
