If you only remember one small detail of an email message, contact, appointment, etc., there are two ways you can search for that item:
1. You can use the wildcard character, which is the asterisk (*), in a simple search. Use the asterisk as a wildcard to find content with words that have similar spellings. For example, do* returns items with the word dog, door, etc.
2. You can perform an advanced search, using the various advanced search panes to specify the detail you remember about the item.
