Gotta run, reading this I realized that you must use the special search constructs (beginning with any ending, any beginning, anything) instead of embedding a wildcard in the search text. Look at the search examples where they have the drop-down box for the comparison type.

Hope this helps, I am out for the day to my day job, back tonight.

I have tried % character. it's not working.
Here a part of the code which I used:

Subject: Re: [dbforms] Searching & filtring records


You did not provide any detail. Without a code snippet it is impossible to say, except that wildcard searches using % work in sql (an attribute of the language). The asterisk is a filesystem metacharacter, no one in the ANSI sql world thinks of an asterisk as a database metacharacter for searching.

functionality (Search records by meta character). the search is working but not with the asterisk (* or %) character.
