Wildcard search in data store

Question

I'm trying to search using a wildcard in a AOP data store.  
This produces a result:
Back EMF Date: 2012-08-20 Time: 14:16:04
But this does not
Back*
How can I use wildcards in a data store search?

Answer 1

I would assume all of the following should create correct results
dim query : set query = store.CreateQuery
query.ReturnType = "Measurement"
query.Conditions.Add "Measurement", "name", "=", "Back*"
store.Search(query)
store.GetElementList("Measurement", "name=Back%", true)
store.GetElementList("Measurement", "name=Back*", false)
store.GetElementList("Measurement", "name=Back*")
 Please take into account that AOP does not support case insensitive query.
I assume that you are using a AVL Puma. You might need to set a switch in the Advanced DIalog of the AOP connection. "Use Like instead of MATCH".
In the connection parameter this shows up as
<santorinlike>YES</santorinlike>
