Hi All,

  I need a means to search for a pattern (With basic wildcard characters like %, _, ^, []). How do I do this in oracle. I also need to get back the string that matches the pattern. Is there any predefined function or procedure that does this. Would like to avoid implementing this on my own.

TIA,
ShivaM
