Default Wild Cards in Find and Replace

Can I use # symbol in a search and replace as a wildcard?

I have an if statement I want to change to and equals statement but I don't
want to have to replace all 200+ entries manually.

TIA

Jon

Simple answer is no. You can use ? to replace a single character or * to
replace multiple characters.
Eg. H?L finds all 3-letter words beginning with H and ending with L; H*L
finds all words beginning with H and ending with L.
