Wanting to use File System Task in SSIS to move files from
one location to another for archiving. I can't seem to figure out how to use a
wild card for the file name. It seems that I must specify the actual file name
which is a problem because only the first 4 letters in the file name remain a
constant.
Does anyone know how to use a wild card or a way to work
this in?

Yes. use a ForEach loop to loop over the files (which you can specify with a wildcard) and then use the FileSystem task on each iterated file.
