The expressions you can test against with Like are **far** less complicated
than with "normal" regular expressions, yet they are still quite flexible in
their own right. You should take a half hour or so and play around with lots
of made-up text strings in order to get comfortable with the Like operator;
it is really fairly easy to get one's head around.
