Find In Files: how to exclude files?

I tried to search before posting but could not find an answer to this question.

If I put *.c in the "In Files:" box of the Find In Files feature, how can I exclude certain files from the wildcard match, such as foo.c?

Thank you!

I imagine the lack of response means that this is not possible?

It would be a very nice feature to have. When I search a vxWorks build tree for function names it always finds them in the symTbl.c files and I would really really like to exclude these files from the search, but still include the rest of *.c
