How to do a FullText Search on Sql Server Table which includes special characters?

Question

I am attempting to do a fulltext search on a table where one of the rows is a log and contains characters such as ,.: and so on. Currently when a query is ran using the 'Contains' keyword which includes any of those characters no rows are returned. Is there any advice on the best route that can be take for this search? Here is what my current query look like at the moment:

ALTER Procedure [dbo].[searchLog]
    @searchValue varchar(150)
    AS
    Declare @myquote varchar(10)
    Declare @wildcard varchar(5)
    set @myquote ='"'
    set @wildcard ='*'
    set @searchValue = @myquote + @searchValue + @wildcard +@myquote    
    BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON
    SELECT  o.ID, o.Name, o.DateRan, s.Name AS Job, o.Start, o.[End], o.Status, o.Logs
    FROM    dbo.o AS o LEFT OUTER JOIN
                dbo.j AS j ON o.Job = j.ID LEFT OUTER JOIN
                dbo.s AS s ON j.Script = s.ID
WHERE CONTAINS ((o.Name, o.Logs),  @searchValue)  
ORDER BY o.ID DESC

Example of Logs being searched:

"Sunday, July 7, 2019 1:20:00 PM
Seeking c:\xxxx\xxxx\log1_date.txt Seeking c:\xxxx\xxxx\log2_date.txt Seeking c:\xxxx\xxxx\log4_date.txt Monday, July 8, 2019 1:20:00 PM FTP AND PGP COMPLETED Processed 0 files ."

You could try the CONTAINS function

SELECT * FROM [TableName] WHERE CONTAINS (*, 'Word')
