No.  Best you can do is a set of conditional lookups with static

T remember can I use a wild card with an index.

If I can. How?

I am trying to find a date record using an index the date is field 4(10,myyy/). This means that the month and date would be 2 digits and the years 4 digits with a slash (/) separating them.

Thanks for any assistance.
