What is the equivalent T-SQL select query for the attached linq query?

Question

I am facing some trouble writing where condition in the SQL select statement match the above criteria. Any advice?

AllCompany = AllCompany
 .Where(company =>fldSector
 .Contains(company["Sectors"].Replace("|", ","))).ToList();

There is a REPLACE() function in sql-server and it would probably look like this if you do updating on your table:

UPDATE tableName
SET sectors = REPLACE(sectors,'|',',');

See Fiddle Demo

Or if you want simply to SELECT , you can use PATINDEX() :

SELECT sectors  
FROM tableName
WHERE PATINDEX('%|%',sectors) > 0
