Using a wildcard search string

Edit online

To achieve a search that does not contain the full search string is to use a wildcard search.

About this task

There are two types of wildcard that are supported:
  • (*) - match any number of characters
  • (?) - substitutes for any one character in the search keyword

Procedure

  1. Select the content management system attribute on the item data entry screen.
  2. For any attribute, select LIKE or LIKE IGNORECASE in the attribute Option drop-down.
  3. Provide a wildcard text string.
    For example, Dav*.
  4. Click Search. This search displays any results that start with Dav or dav.
