Hi everyone,

In my daily working programm, I have the possibility to replace part of a Name/
Client number etc by % (ex: looking for client number 123456789 would be possible
to find by typing %345678%).

Does bricklinK have a similar funktion to find all items that are on the site
with number + pb.../px... etc?

would be great if so, mostly for items that are decorated so that one can find
all decorated variants of a part by typing "number%" in the searching
field.

Thank you in advance

As others have mentioned, you can use the wildcard for the end of a character
string.

For more detailed searches, download the catalog and open with Excel:
