I am new to qliksense. Please what will '124.9**' in this expression WildMatch(InputName,'124.9**', '345.2*', '978.2*') match? I understand one * but two ** is confusing to me. Thank for the anticipated help.
the double asterisk ** doesn't change anything; this could just be a typo
'124.9**' would return same results as this '124.9*'
In a wildmatch (**) makes no difference but while searching in folders it does .
double asterisks (**) in the pattern '124.9**' act as a single asterisk since the first asterisk is treated as a literal character and the second one acts as the wildcard. So, this pattern would match strings like '124.91', '124.912', '124.9123', and so on.

Thanks everyone for your input, I greatly appreciate it.
You brought up an interesting perspective, please what do you mean by first asterisk is treated as a literal character?
