Hi Gregory
Basically all a Text Entry Box does is accept input, right? It then compares what was typed to what you are expecting. Assuming a match is made, it is then deemed successful and off you go following the action assigned to the "On success" area.
Note that you also have an area that allows you to choose an action if a user doesn't type what was expected. By default, this area is "turned off" by having the check mark in the "Infinite attempts" check box. If you DE-select this and allow a single attempt, you may then take an action based on a failure. And oddly enough, this is what you want!
So, what you do here is to enter the comparison text as something that you never in a million years would expect them to type into the field. Something like XYzA234Q. Then you assign the Failure action to be what you WANT to happen. This provides an ability for "Wildcard" text to be entered.
Hopefully this helps you achieve what you were looking for.
Sincerely... Rick
