In MonoConc, the standard wildcard characters are:
* matches 0 or more of any characters (or character combination)
% matches 0 or 1 character
? matches exactly 1 character
so help*_VV* would extract all instances of "help", "helps", helped", "helping" etc. tagged as a lexical verb (VVI, VVG, VVD VVN etc. See the CLAWS C7 tagset for what these tags mean).
help*_VV* to_TO *_V?I
would find all instances of the structure "help" used as a lexical verb followed by "to" used as an infinitive mark and then followed by all all words tagged as the infinitive forms of a verb (VVI, VBI, VDI VHI etc)
But for this trick to work, your corpus must be tagged using CLAWS C7, i.e. each word in the text is tagged like this: word_POS, not word/POS.
