Thanks, but I seem to have a problem with the variable
in the expression:

EOQualifier newQual =
EOQualifier.qualifierWithQualifierFormat("(client
caseInsensitiveLike %@) AND (isComplete = 0)", arg1);

if I put the trailing '%' as a wildcard the
expressions fails with:

Reason:  Lexical error at line 1, column 32.
Encountered: ")" (41), after : "%"

my sql example... we answered the case insensitivity
but not the wildcard....

select * from adlist where lower(client) like
lower('s%')

maybe I need to escape the trailing %....
