EXCEL: FileSearch seems to prefix filename with "*" YUK! [Resolved]

EXCEL

I'm trying to identify a list of numbered files from a folder. They all have exactly the same format: fname_000.ext where "000" is any 3 numerals. I'm using the VBA FileSearch object, but it seems to prefix the filename with a wildcard "*" so that not only do all the files with the correct name get returned, but ANY file with any prefix before the correct name gets returned, such as "XXXX-fname_123.xls" ... YUK! How do I get it to ignore all files that do NOT fit the prototype?

    'Create a FileSearch object
    Set fs = Application.FileSearch
    
    With fs
        .NewSearch
        .LookIn = "C:\Test"
        .SearchSubFolders = False
        .Filename = "fname_???.xls"             '<<< This is what fails
        .MatchTextExactly = True
        
        If .Execute > 0 Then

            'Step through each string in the FileDialogSelectedItems collection.
            For Each vrtSelectedItem In .FoundFiles

                'vrtSelectedItem is a String: contains path of each selected item.
                'This example simply displays the path in a message box.
                'TEST TEST TEST TEST
                MsgBox "The path is: " & vrtSelectedItem
                'END TEST
                 
            Next vrtSelectedItem
        'The user pressed Cancel.
        Else
            'No file was selected
        End If
    
    End With

Why the devil does this return a file named "XXXX-fname_123.xls" ??? YUK!

And how do I only return files that EXACTLY fit my template: fname_???.xls
Thank you for all comments, suggestions, and assistance.
