0 MxxCon Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 from windows help file:rolleyes: Wildcard character Uses Asterisk (*) Use the asterisk as a substitute for zero or more characters. If you are looking for a file that you know starts with "gloss" but you cannot remember the rest of the file name, type the following: gloss* This locates all files of any file type that begin with "gloss" including Glossary.txt, Glossary.doc, and Glossy.doc. To narrow the search to a specific type of file, type: gloss*.doc This locates all files that begin with "gloss" but have the file name extension .doc, such as Glossary.doc and Glossy.doc. Question mark (?) Use the question mark as a substitute for a single character in a name. For example, if you type gloss?.doc, you will locate the file Glossy.doc or Gloss1.doc but not Glossary.doc.
