Actually find an asterisk using the Find() method? Not use it as a wildcard?

I am testing some software that adds entries to a table.  I need to find and delete all entries marked as "*".  Problem is, If I do something like this props = ["ObjectType","innerText"] ...

Hello Kevin,



maybe you could try searching for ASCII value:





props = ["ObjectType","innerText"]

values = ["Cell", Chr(42)]

cell = table.Find(props, values, 1000)





or





var asterisk = Chr(42);

props = ["ObjectType","innerText"]

values = ["Cell", asterisk]

cell = table.Find(props, values, 1000)





Did not try myself, just a thought...
