9.2.2. Term Modifiers

Query terms support modifiers to provide a wide range of searching options.

9.2.2.1. Wildcard searches

Single and multiple character wildcard searches are supported.

  1. To perform a single character wildcard search use the “?” symbol.

  2. To perform a multiple character wildcard search use the “*” symbol.

The single character wildcard search looks for terms that match that with the single character replaced. For example, to search for “text” or “test” you can use the search:

te?t

Multiple character wildcard searches looks for 0 or more characters. For example, to search for test, tests or tester, you can use the search:

test*
You can also use the wildcard searches in the middle of a term.
te*t

[Note]Note

You cannot use a * or ? symbol as the first character of a search.
