I think we have lost something in the translation here. Could you go to the View Designer, click on the SQL button to display the generated SQL? Then drag the mouse over the WHERE clause and hit Ctrl+C then come back here and paste it in a reply.

For now, what I can see is you need some parentheses. I also would not reference another field in another table the way you have in the filter:

where some_criteria AND ;
   [Table.cMyField = ?cOtherField OR ;
    Table.cMyField LIKE "%" OR ;
    Table.cMyField = ""]

Because you have cMyField LIKE "%", you have just qualified all records regardless of the value [or emptiness] of cMyField. Therefore, you can eliminate the entire part of the where clause in the brackets above.

If you need cOtherField, you should parameterize your view:

cOtherField = trim(OtherTable.cOtherField)
requery("MyView")
