Using wildcards (Like -operator)

When a value supports wildcards (Like -operator) you can use the following special characters. All of the example below match the string ‘example 1’.

Character	Description	Example
*	Zero or more characters	amp1
?	Any single character	e?ample 1
#	Any single digit (0–9)	example #
`[charlist]`	Any single character in `charlist`	e[xyz]ample 1
`[!charlist]`	Any single character not in `charlist`	e[!abc]ample 1

To match the special characters left bracket ([), question mark (?), number sign (#), and asterisk (*), enclose them in brackets. The right bracket (]) cannot be used within a group to match itself, but it can be used outside a group as an individual character.
