Negative selection on ADID with WAPL

We've been experimenting with negative logic and wildcards in LIST not equal commands with WAPL, but we are not able to get it to work.

Thus far we are only able to use fully qualified ADID names in the LIST Not Equal statement, i.e.

LIST ADID-NE(FULLYQUALIADID)

But we would like to use a wildcard (*), i.e.

LIST ADID-NE(*DYN),


But the results contain the ADIDs endings in *DYN.


It would be usefull to be able to exclude certain ADID names when selecting ADID's for automated processing. We would use this is a process to automatically add special resources to jobs that need them.
