Restore - Find Files pattern match problem

[msholind]

I am having the devil of a time finding files to restore. I am using Retrospect Multiserver v7.0.301, with update 7.0.5.102. I am trying to find files in a folder called "Monthly Reporting" located on several servers. The full path is:

 

<servername>\Data\Public\Monthly Reporting\<filename>.xls

 

The same directory is on five servers and I wish to review the files backed up from each server. On two servers, there exists "Monthly Reporting 2003", "Monthly Reporting 2004", etc. I don't wish to use "*Monthly Reporting*" as that will give me too many results (many folders named "Monthly Reporting" exist elsewhere other than "Public").

 

When I try to use a pattern match of "*Public\Monthly*", no files are listed. However, if I search by individual filename, the files are listed (I know they are there to restore), exactly stored where I expected. I have tried switching the "\" to "/" and to "?" but no luck.

 

I am very familiar with "regular" expressions, which is what this seems to be modeled after but I am having no luck. The other weird thing is the progress dialog shows several matches while searching but then shows no files when the search completes (???).

 

Thanks in advance.

Instead of pattern matching, try looking to see if the path contains what you're looking for. Assuming these are Windows servers, the condition would read:

 

Windows file path contains \Public\Monthly Reporting\
