Finding with contains instead of begins with

Eggshen

This is probably a simple question, but can you change the way FMPro 8.5 does a find? I believe it defaults to "begins with", but can an option be changed, or an input added that will make it find with "contains"?

I know it was possible with CDML in 6, so the code for it must exist in the FMBrain. I am trying to get around using wildcards to search.

Thanks for your help!

Stars are used for contains, so:

*red*

will find records containing Fred, Fredrick, etc.
