Pascal

Parameters

Parameters	Description
Data: string	A literal string value to be checked, for example 'Bob Smith'
Pattern: string	A pattern to be matched, can have special wildcard characters, for example 'Bob%'

run\JvCsvData.pas

Description

See SetFilter.
patterns can contain wildcards, such as '%' for AnyString, or '?' for matching any SingleCharacter. These wildcards were chosen because they are similar to the wildcards used in SQL Databases.
A very specialized feature is the ability to check for several different values, by combining the values with a vertical-pipe (|) symbol. To match a string that starts with either A or B or C, use the pattern 'A%|B%|C%
