Question

Which of the following characters are wildcards in Excel? (Check all that apply)
  1. #
  2. *
  3. ?
  4. $
  5. @



Answer

B. * and C. ?


Explanation

Wildcards are the characters we use to represent other characters in Excel, usually in a criterion that we write in a formula.

Here are the wildcard characters available in Excel and what we can use them for.
  • * (Asterisk) = represents any characters in any amount
  • (Question mark) = represents any one character
  • (Tilde) = enables you to add a literal asterisk (*) or question mark (?)

From the answer choices, we have an asterisk (*) and a question mark (?) as wildcard characters we can use in Excel in B and C answer choices. Thus, the correct answers to the question are B and C.
