Is there a way to search for reports in InfoView using Wildcards in the search criteria? If so, what is the syntax? I've tried using %, ?, *, but none seem to work.

If it can't be done, that's cool... just trying to get the most out of the search function.

Thanks!

Wildcards are not available in the search facility of Infoview.

However fuzzy matches do work.

For example if I search for wor, the serach returns all reports containg these 3 characters in the report title. eg World Sales report, Password modifications
 
Well, that bites. Really limits the utility of keywords. You would think this would be an option in any search engine. LOL

Thanks for the info...

If you're interested in a tool with enhanced search features over the standard InfoView, I can recommend Instance Analyser by Zoom Software - It's also a batch scheduler.
