Default How can I find strings of wildcards in Excel?

I was looking to find strings made up of wildcard characters in Excel, and
I've been having some problems.

For example, I was searching for the string "*?" in my spreadsheet (without
the quotes), and it was directing me to every cell with data in it. If I
search for "{*" (without the quotes), it directs me to every cell with data
that begins with the "{" amperscand character.

Does anyone have a similar problem, or know how to get around this? Thank
you in advance.
