I have a remote view set up with vfp5 and progress 9.
If I set up the select like this...

SELECT Partopr.PartNum, Partopr.RevisionNum, Partopr.OprSeq;
FROM PUB.PartOpr Partopr;
WHERE Partopr.Company = 'GMI';
AND Partopr.PartNum LIKE ?vparampn; && subsitute lines as shown below
AND Partopr.RevisionNum = ?vparamrev;
AND Partopr.OprSeq = ?vparamopseq

vparamopseq=10
vparamrev='e'

I get the following results with the following lines substituted...

partopr.partnum = '45-0601' works.
partopr.partnum like '45-0601' works.
partopr.partnum like vparampn works if vparampn = '45-0601%'
partopr.partnum like vparampn will not work if vparampn = '45-0601'


partopr.partnum exists in the progress database as '45-0601'

Any tips?
