Numeric Wildcard for Name with Find Now

Post by AlexXY »

I used D####.DBF with Name, Find Now and Standard, Boolean, and RegExp settings
a folder with over 750 files with names like D1234 and none of them were found.

Xyplorer Help says that:
Wildcards (Pattern Matching Special Characters)

Characters in pattern Matches in string
? Any single character
* Zero or more characters
# Any single digit (0-9)

I documented the things I tried in the attachment.
