Answer 1

You must escape the BT special word (but you can just escape the entire string).

SELECT person_no sub_sys_individual_id,
 nm_e,
 nm_a,
 nvl(sex, -1) sex,
nvl(prs_nat, -999) prs_nat,
person_no,
'NA' prog_where_not_allowed,
'NA' udb_no,
 person_tp,
 pass_no
FROM ban_inq_tab
WHERE contains (nm_e ,'{xxstart JUHETI BT MEMED ASMANI}%') >0
AND (trans_flag IS NULL OR trans_flag = 'C');
