Matchcode
Wild Card Character
Usage: Example: With Wild Card Character defined as the default asterisk,
defining CR*34 as the master symbol will result in matches for CR 1 34
and CR 2 34, but not CR2345. Entering URGENT** as your master symbol
will result in matches for URGENT, URGENT1, and URGENT12 but not
for URGENT123. This means any wild cards appended to the master
symbol data will result in matches of symbols in variable lengths up to the
master symbol lengths but not over. However, wild cards in the beginning
or center of a symbol (e.g., UR**NT) do not allow for variable symbol lengths.
Definition: Wild Card Character allows a user to define a wild card character as part
of the master symbol.
