I need to search for accounts in Microsoft CRM, using a wildcard search to get a "contains" search for the user's input. So if the user enters "ABC", I use ConditionOperator.Like and the value "%ABC%".

My question is, how would I search for a customer name that contains a percentage sign, such as "100% Great llc"? I can't find a way to escape the %.
