      for convenience when working with other windows' programs along with sqlyog it would be nice if sqlyog allowed for use of windows' wildcards along with standard sql wildcards.

      Windows' wildcards:

      * placeholder for any number of characters

      ? placeholder for exactly one character

      Standard SQL wildcards:

      % placeholder for any number of characters

      _ placeholder for exactly one character

      it's implemented like that in OpenOffice. I know it involves some parsing, and might slow things down a bit, so it could be a setting that could be turned on/off. That would also solve problems if it can be imagined to conflict for other users/situations.

      In case the database contains strings variables with characteres * ? % and _ a complete “wildcard substitution feature” could be imagined.

      Other users – what do you think ?
