Match() is used for a case sensitive comparison. It matches the exact searchstring you pass in the function.

for Example: Match(Name,'Raja') , returns true if a person's name is exactly Raja (R caps).

WildMatch is used for a match where a string can be part of the search string.

For example :Match(Name,'Raja') will return true if a person's name is Raja, Maharaja, Rajan, or Rajat or some other string containing Raja in it.

MixMatch is same as Match but it is case insensitive.

Ex : wildmatch (M, 'Veerendra*', 'katikala#', 'Middle name' )

returns 1 if M = Veerendra

returns 2 if M = katikala

return 3 if M = middle name

WildMatch Resturned the search string by using * and it is case insensitive,

ex;wildmatch(Month,'*h','f*','fe*'..,)

in this case its returns the search string of month field ended with ,'h',started with 'f'.
