I need help with a match function.  For some reason I am not getting the results.  I try to match  a word 'Symantec' contained in the variable 'mystring_var'.  If match evaluates to true, I want to print a report and the string itself.  Also, I am not an expert in REGEX, any check on my regex usage is appreciated. 

   if(match(string: mystring_var, pattern: 'Symantec.*'))
 report = string (desc["english"],
  "\n\nPlugin output :\n\n",
  mystring_var);

  Thanks for help.

  Simon
