Use the 'tilde' character, e.g.
~* to find any strings containing a * char.

I can't figure out what punctuation needs to go before and after the
* to search for only *'s and not to use it as a Wildcard. In the
help it says to use brackets, but that is under the Microsoft Access
help, and it didn't work in Excel.
In the end, I plan to write a Macro that replaces the character '*'
with the number 3650 in all cells of my excel file (though I don't
need help with the Macro part, just how to type the character to be
replaced).
Thanks for your help!
I've been searching the help pages for over an hour with no joy.
