9 9 Company Information – Tips On Searching Wild card searches can be performed by entering the range- appropriate “piece” of criteria, preceded and/or followed by an asterisk (*). In the example to the left, the number 001 followed by an asterisk (001*) searches for all entities that begin with 001. If the search criteria was preceded and followed by an asterisk (*001*), the search would be for all entities that contain 001. This brings up all items within a range, so long as the range itself is not too large (i.e., search results that number over 50 items).
