Anagrams: Recursive Logic Error

[DroopyPawn]

In working on this Anagramming program, I've created a recursive function to search for sub anagrams. It works perfectly with letters but when I enter a "*", things go crazy. I get a few words listed repeatedly (15 or so times on some of them) and not all of the expected words show up.

The "*" should be treated as a wildcard and replaced with "a" through "z". Then each of those 26 possibilites is treated as new word.

I can't find the error. Can you?

Public Sub DoWildCardAnagram(w$)
Dim i As Single
    w$ = SortWord(w$)   'rearranges the letters of w$ into alphabetical order
                        'so that if there's a "*" present it will be the first
                        'Character
        
    If Left(w$, 1) = "*" Then
        Dim ln As Integer, t$
        ln = Len(w$)
        'change * to letters and try again
        For i = 97 To 122
            t$ = Right(w$, ln - 1) & Chr(i)
            DoWildCardAnagram (t$)
        Next i
        Me.Caption = t$
    Else
        Dim v As Double
        v = GetWordValue(txtAnagram)
        
        For i = 1 To WordCount  'go through the list of legal words and see if any of them match my word
            If v / WordValue(i) = Int(v / WordValue(i)) Then
                If Len(WordList(i)) < 12 Then AddToLists WordList(i) 'found a good word - add it to the list
            End If
        Next i
    End If
End Sub
