Exist returns false with part of innertext

[Milindt43]

Following returns True with Full Innertext "Country Code: BE Currency Code: EUR"

Code:

Set Obj_WebElement=Description.Create()
Obj_WebElement("html tag").value = "TD"
Obj_WebElement("innertext").value = "Country Code: BE Currency Code: EUR"
Obj_WebElement("micclass").value = "WebElement"

If Browser(obj_Browser).Page(obj_Page).WebElement(Obj_WebElement).Exist (5) Then
Msgbox "Found Country & Currency Code"

But with part of innertext "Country Code:" followed by .*

Obj_WebElement("innertext").value = "Country Code:.*"

The same returns false

Can anyone explain why?
