[mso] Access 2002: Alpha/Numeric Greater Than Problem

Jim helped me awhile back and I've been using his expression since: Like
"??????5???"  It returns the result of our alpha/numeric order numbers of
only those with a '5' in the 7th position.

However, I did not know at the time the numbers would go higher than 5, I
was thinking 5999 would be highest.  But like the Y2K problem, it could
keep going till 9999.  Therefore, is it possible to use same idea of the
exact position but cover any number from ??????5000 thru ??????9999

Since it's alpha, the greater than doesn't work.  I can say Like
"??????5???" or Like "??????6???" or Like "??????7???" or Like "??????8???"
or Like "??????9???", and that is working in my test.  But is there a more
efficient way to achieve same?  Thank you again, Cathy
