Default wildcard to express that the previous expr/char is optional

Hi there,



In regular expressions, it could find one or none (expr) with the question mark: (expr)?

However, in Word's wildcards, the question mark has other meaning. How do I write that?

Cheers,
Manuel

Default Sorry!

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I'll stick to the other forum, and I'm sorry.

Cheers, Manuel
