Wildcard search
In the full-text search, you can use the question mark ? and asterisk * wildcards for certain characters in search terms. The question mark stands for a single character. The asterisk stands for any number of characters. Letters and numbers count as characters.
You typically use wildcards if a term has several spellings or can also occur as part of a word.

Enter Me?er to find the names Meyer and Meier.
