Core principles for creating efficient search statements that are applicable in virtually any database.

• Wildcard (#): The “#” replaces any extra characters that may appear in alternative spellings. For example, “colo#r” finds both color and colour.
• Wildcard (?): The “?” replaces one character, for example “ne?t” finds neat, nest, or next, but will not find net.
• Truncation (*): The “*” replaces any number of characters and will find all forms of a word root, for example, “therap*” finds therapy, therapies, therapist, therapists, therapeutic, therapeutically, etc.
