Enhanced Search Widget Wildcard Search Syntax

To All Enhanced Search Widget Users:

I have a search with an ID field of 8 characters where I would like to just have a wildcard for the last character with a requirement of at least 7 characters before the Search is enabled. I would just like to change the config file and avoid modifying the uncompiled action script code, if that is possible.

This is the search I have for matching the end of the user input value, but it allows too many results to be found.
<value prompt="Example: M1234567" isvaluerequired="true">upper(ID) LIKE upper('[value]%')

I have values of say M1234561, M1234562, M1234563, M1234564, M1234565 and M1234559, M1239999, M1230000.

I want to just get back the first 5 values (M1234561, M1234562, M1234563, M1234564, M1234565) if I enter M123456. I would not want the user to be able to search for M123 which would retrieve all of these records. The feature class has thousands of entries so I am currently getting thousands of returns if I am able to perform a search with less than 7 characters.
