SQL databases have supported the LIKE operator for a very long time and it will allow you to compare a string to a pattern and has wildcard characters to match any single character or zero or more characters. HCL Informix also supports the MATCHES operator that give you some more wildcard matching options. Similar to the LIKE predicate, MATCHES has support for wildcard characters to match any single character or zero or more characters. It also has the ability to match single character from a set or range of characters or match a single character that is not in a set or range of characters.
