 **Note:** The ''%'' sign in the green box explanation is the wildcard sign for the RDMS search. Its meaning is that whatever is not contained by two ''%'' signs or does precede or follow it, does not matter. Example: "%cube" would find all entries that are either the exact word "cube" or that end in the word "cube", no matter with what other term they start. Please keep in mind that the position of the ''%'' sign matters when performing a search.
