The null and ones that don't start with 'a' are the ones I want. I just
wanted to say "list all the individuals who don't have a type2 that
starts with a".

It works if I use more than one character (all the "au%" or all the
"ar%"). Nowhere do I read that there is a 2 character limitation on
wildcard selects.
