Problems finding windows with asterisks in window title

I have been experiencing problems with the various windows commands (setfocus, getwindowpos, etc) when the window title I am looking for HAS asterisks. I am also needing to specify the wildcard asterisk in the window-title, and this is where I believe the problem arrises.

Example: Window title is "** Main Menu **"

SetFocus>Main Menu* //This doesn't always work right?

How could I do an exact match without the extra asterisks gettting
in the way?

Also I am seeing problems when the window title has "/" (slash)
character in it.

Any Ideas????

Have you tried this?

SetFocus>** Main Menu ***
