Default Filter asterisks from a field

Hello, I have a field in a table in which there are asterisks (*) entered in
some data. How can I filter those records in which asterisks are entered?
For example there might be an entry (John*Smith) I need to find all these
entries with asterisks.

Can someone help me?

Thank you
Dimitris
