I'm trying to write a query to find records that have an asterisk (*) in them. Of course it could be anywhere in the field so I need to use a wildcard to find it. Normally I would use * as the wildcard but this doesn't work since I'm literally looking for that character. Can I do this?

Thanks for any help...
