Not the way it was posted. At least, StringBuffer.setCharAt() needs a
second argument of type char, and this would be a strange type for a
"customer name" field.

There's  a syntax error here, use ".*[*#].*", because you don't need to
quote '*' inside '[...]', and if you do (which is OK) you'll have to use
'\\'.

Same here: either no '\' or doubled.
