String Functions
Description
Determine whether a string matches a pattern
Syntax
Match(string, pattern)
Parameters
string - a literal string enclosed in either double or single quotes ("string" or 'string') or a string function
pattern - a string (or function) defining the pattern to check the string against
Notes
The pattern can simply be another string, in which case this is equivalent to "string1 == string2".
The match pattern syntax is the old DOS file wildcards: ? matches any single character, and * matches zero or more characters.
Examples
Match("this is a test", "*test") is true (will return 1)
Match("this is a test", "test*") is false (will return 0)
