Hi,

I believe you may have changed the permitted wild-card
combinations recently.

I have a number of saved searches with the combination
[BLOCK]?* as I wished to find names with at least one
character after the string, but could have more than
one character.
Unfortunately BLOCK* brings up a large number of
unwanted BLOCKs :-(

May I make a plea to have the combinations of ?* (and
*? possibly) re-instated ?

I appreciate there may be search consequences of which
I am un-aware, if so, could you exlain in the FAQs to
head off other requests, or have I just missed it ?

In any event I think you and all the transcribers,
etc. do a great job :-) thanks,
Regards, Edward
