9.1.5 Using Wildcards to make Query
Wild card | Description | Implication |
---|---|---|
_ | Underscore | To match a single character. |
% | Percent | To match any string of multiple characters. |
- Using %
For instance, if you have to check the messages relating to one particular loans product LD01, you can query for records with reference number like %LD01% since all the contract reference numbers with that product invariably contain that string.
Once you click the Accept button and make a query, the Outgoing Message Browser screen displays all the free format texts.
- Using And
When you are searching for strings of specific length which vary in only one character – for instance, all branches like 001, 002, 003 – can be represented as 00_. Searching for 00_ fetches all the messages for all these three branches.
