Hi Chandan,
By default select option does accept wild cards.
I have used some thing like this and it works properly :
SELECT-OPTIONS:
  s_kunnr FOR w_kunnr            DEFAULT 'SE*',    "Customer Number
Now while you want to SELECT
Replace '*' with '%' and then use LIKE to fetch data.
  CONSTANTS:
            lc_aster      TYPE c VALUE '*',
             lc_percent    TYPE c VALUE '%'.
w_kunnr = s_kunnr-low.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF lc_aster IN w_kunnr WITH lc_percent.
* for selecting
    SELECT     kunnr
    INTO TABLE lint_kunnr
    FROM       kna1
    WHERE      kunnr LIKE w_kunnr.
I hope this helps you !!
