having issues with searching the T179T table using SE16N.

When I search on the Description using a wildcard (*) and a partial string of the alpha string of characters, I do not get results. See this screenshot for an example:

However, when I broaden my search by excluding the alpha string, it works.  Here is how that search looked:

Here are the results:

Hi Ranjith

Try giving it like this - 189x01*LIGHT*  If this works it means the space given between 01 and LIGHT is not calculated correctly or cannot be considered.

Hi,

A N is right. Even I have tried the same. If any string is there with space I always try to find with the last word.

In your case you can also try with *LIGHT*.
