Using full text search is not an option.

Why? This is exactly what it's for. And since FTS is even available
in SQL
Express w/advanced services, can you explain why it is not an option?
At a guess it's because the original post states that it's search for parts
of words - FTS only allows whole or prefix word searches, so cannot look for
text in the middle or at the end of a word.
