Doing Import Metadata, I identify down to schema level, then Set Pre-Filter before Identify Next Level to bring back tables. Even though I supply a string that exists in some of the table names in the schema, the importer brings back every table in the schema. Since there are tens of thousands of tables I don't require this behaviour, because the later Import fails with too many tables.

Has anyone else seen this Set Pre-Filter work correctly? Has anyone else seen the behaviour I describe? I'm tending towards the view that it's a bug in this particular version.

Hey Ray,

I've seen it work in 8.5, but from memory it's a bit average.

IIRC, there are no wildcards. You just put in some text and it looks anywhere in the table name for it.
