Wildcards in XML Queries

Use wildcards in queries when you need to replace certain characters or strings in a search value. For example, if you do not know the exact spelling of a word that you want to search for, you can replace the characters that you are unsure of by a wildcard.

The possible wildcards are:

  • anychr, which replaces one character.
  • anystr, which replaces several characters.
  • oneof, which proposes a choice of different replacement characters.
  • allvalues, which replaces all existing values of an index.
  • alldocs, which lets you run queries on all documents in a docbase.
