Dear all, I have to solve the following problem but without success yet.
We need to search for a content in a field 'name' that contains the wildcard symbol appearing somewhere in a string. E.g. indexed string "1234*abc". The query should ignore all others that does not contain this symbol. A query like "name:*\**" does not work - it finds everything. Although if I would search for a symbol like '[' (which is also part of the query syntax) in "1234[abc" using the query "name:*\[*" finds exactly the indexed string. BTW: the string "1234*abc" was indexed as is - checked with Luke Any clue?
