如果你不匹配数字字符串，最好使用通用大小写:

.Where(oh => oh.Hierarchy.ToUpper().Contains(mySearchString.ToUpper()))

使用这样的代码

try
{
    using (DatosDataContext dtc = new DatosDataContext())
    {
        var query = from pe in dtc.Personal_Hgo
                    where SqlMethods.Like(pe.nombre, "%" + txtNombre.Text + "%")
                    select new
                    {
                        pe.numero
                        ,
                        pe.nombre
                    };
        dgvDatos.DataSource = query.ToList();
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    string mensaje = ex.Message;
}

Contains在Linq中使用，就像like在SQL中使用一样。

string _search="/12/";

……

.Where(s => s.Hierarchy.Contains(_search))

你可以像下面这样在Linq中编写SQL脚本:

 var result= Organizations.Join(OrganizationsHierarchy.Where(s=>s.Hierarchy.Contains("/12/")),s=>s.Id,s=>s.OrganizationsId,(org,orgH)=>new {org,orgH});

用这个:

from c in dc.Organization
where SqlMethods.Like(c.Hierarchy, "%/12/%")
select *;

我假设您正在使用Linq-to-SQL*(参见下面的注释)。如果是，使用字符串。包含字符串。StartsWith和字符串。EndsWith生成使用SQL LIKE操作符的SQL。

from o in dc.Organization
join oh in dc.OrganizationsHierarchy on o.Id equals oh.OrganizationsId
where oh.Hierarchy.Contains(@"/12/")
select new { o.Id, o.Name }

or

from o in dc.Organization
where o.OrganizationsHierarchy.Hierarchy.Contains(@"/12/")
select new { o.Id, o.Name }

注意:* =如果您正在使用ADO。Net实体框架(EF / L2E)，注意它不会像Linq-to-SQL那样进行相同的转换。尽管L2S进行了适当的转换，但L2E v1(3.5)将转换为一个t-sql表达式，该表达式将强制对您正在查询的表进行全表扫描，除非在where子句或连接筛选器中有其他更好的鉴别器。 更新:在EF/L2E v4 (.net 4.0)中修正了这个问题，所以它会像L2S一样生成一个SQL LIKE。

如果您需要为单元测试这样的客户端操作提供LIKE功能，CodeProject的这个方法很好地模拟了通配符的行为。

有点像@史蒂夫·阿克曼的回答，但更全面。
