Problem

When setting up a wildcard for logical names of reference files in a pen table, if a $ (special character) exists in the logical name the pen table has no affect on the reference files. 

Solution

The fix is to add a " \ " before the $ in the wildcard designation in the pen table.
Example:
\$Test.*
This will find all reference files with logical names beginning with a $ ($Test, $Test1, $Test2)
This is due to the $ being a special character.
