Process Documents from Files - file pattern

CharlieFirpo

Dear all!

I have a folder that contains several different files (different in names and in extensions as well). I want only use the files that contains <text> string in filename. How can I set it in the file pattern parameter using Process Documents from Files operator? If I use *text* , RM does not read any files from the appropriate folder.
Let say I have these filenames: asd_text-fgh.txt, qwe.textrty.xls, ... I think *text* pattern should return these two filenames. Or not?

Thanks for reply!!!

The pattern is a regular expression *text* will not work. try ".*text.*"
