I am decoding SS7 messages on wireshark. Is it possible to filter all messages in which particular number starts from "0792xxxxxxx" ? It should not gives you a result "xxx0792xxx".

Some filter like beginswith or starts with needed.

You can use the "matches" operator. You will have to use something like:

<field> matches "^0792.*"

Did you use the "^" at the start of the filter? It means "match at the start of the string", so that should exclude "xxx0792xxx"

Try:
contains
You can find more information in the Wireshark Wiki.
