Default * Character

I am trying to write a vb program that searches for the following item "GS*".
When I do a search for this I find other items such as "GS1" or "GSUT" that
are also in the spreadsheet. I realize the * character is a wild card when
doing searches. Since this character is used and I'd like to do a search for
"GS*" is there anyway I can do this?

Thank you.
Kevin
