regular expression in foundset filter parameter

Is it possible to use a regular expression in the addFoundSetFilterParam method? For example, I have a string field, that contains values like: 00000034-012. I need to get a foundset filter to that field but only for the first 8 digits: 00000034. Maybe something like this.:

foundset.addFoundSetFilterParam( 'id', '=', '00000034????',);

which matches:

00000034-012
00000034-013
00000034-045
00000034-052

Is that possible?

Hello Jos, that gives me not the correct result. I have a dataprovider nextrefid which contains the same value as the above id value before the dash (the first 8 digits). If I use:

addFoundSetFilterParam( 'nextrefid', '=', nextrefid );

I get the correct result.
