Wildcards in custom field searches

RT Users

I am currently performing a search on a custom field like so:

‘CF.{Serial Numbers}’ LIKE ‘655’

This obviously searches through the custom field “Serial Numbers”.

Unfortunately information often gets put in the wrong place and locating
it can be difficult.

Is it possible to use a wildcard (or other simple method) to search
through all custom fields? For example:

‘CF.{%}’ LIKE ‘655’ (I tried this but it didn’t work)

thanks

There is no way to use a wildcard instead of field name. Use patterns
to check input and avoid misplacing of info.On Fri, Nov 7, 2008 at 2:38 AM, gordon@cryologic.com wrote:
