alone as the entire expression.

When you click OK, a dialog box appears prompting you to create
the tag.
click the Tags button and select a tag from the Tags list
Enclose tag names that contain dashes or start with a number in
braces { } when you use them in an expression. This distinguishes the
characters in the tag name from the characters in the expression. Also
use braces when using wildcards (* or ?) to represent multiple tags in
an expression.
For detailed information about tags, see Chapter 4, Creating tags.

character
