I have a "search string" field to scan over multiple fields...

currently we are doing this with RPG example:

if s1xcnt = *blanks or
%scan(%trim(s1xcnt):%xlate(lw:up:mnujob)) > 0 or
%scan(%trim(s1xcnt):%xlate(lw:up:mnuonm)) > 0) ;


I am attempting to do this in a where clause, but not getting it right


where UPPER(mnujob) like('%.......%) or
UPPER(mnuonm) like(%......%)


I have tried doing various %trim commands,
I have tried doing this as both a Prepared SQL statement, and inline...
I tried doing this with OmniFind, but that was overly complex with
building
multiple index objects...
