How can I use a wildcard search term inside of the attribute assistant? I am trying to look in one field for the text string   " WY" (The field might say "WINDY WY" or "MAIN ST", etc). If the search is successful, I want to populate another field based on findings so field 2 would say "WINDY WAY". 

Input Fields:

Str_Name = "WINDY WY"

Str_Dir = "N"

Str_Numb = "123"

Unit = "#100"

Result Field:

USPS: = "123 N WINDY WAY #100"

To reiterate, I want to search the Str_Name field for specific street types, then based on that result populate the USPS field with a concatenated string using the proper street type abbreviation.

The thought it was important to explain the entire expression I want but I really only need help with the wildcard search

portion.
