Improve the Quicken Find/Replace Function to recognize spaces and/or allow quoted Strings [edited]

I have a situation where I have a Payee that randomizes the payee name on each transaction so renaming and categorizing rules won't work. The only constant is the Payee name always starts with a capital letter T followed by a space. Unfortunately Quicken does not recognize the letter T by itself as a whole word and ignores the space if I search for a T immediately followed by a space.

Allowing quoted strings such as "T" or "T " where Quicken would treat the value inside the quotes as the entire string would resolve this. Currently Quicken treats a "" as a character to search for.

    Quicken has several Search functions. Is this request for Edit > Find/Replace, Renaming Rules as in your other discussion, or something else?

    [update] From your other discussion, it appears you are referring to Find/Replace. I edited the title to clarify.
