Generic values

 

Wherever a parameter can have a generic value, it is entered ending with an asterisk (*), for example ABC*. A generic value means 'all values beginning with'; so ABC* means 'all values beginning with ABC'.

If characters that require quotes are used in the value, the asterisk must be placed inside the quotes, thus 'abc*'. The asterisk must be the last or only character in the value.

The question mark (?) and colon (:) are not allowed in generic values.
