Default Want to do single wildcard search for Z?Z or Z??Z

Hi all



I have inserted a number of special code words into my Word documents, which always take the precise form ZXZABCDE... or ZXYZABCDE...

In detail - 1st char is always a capital Z. This is followed by precisely 1 or 2 capital alphabet characters (including Z), followed immediately by second capital Z (which can therefore be in position 3 or 4 only), followed by any number of alphabet characters (again, maybe including some Z's), all in caps, all one word.

examples:
ZIZAUGCHR
ZVZAQUTRIN
ZQVZDOCET
ZZZMARKER
ZHZCHAP1
ZSZJZZ
ZSVZJZZ

etc

I have tried everything I can think of to wildcard search this without success.

Any help would be much appreciated

Mike
