Help with ls command

Hi,

I want to list some files in the directory but i want to exclude one file while listing.
Say for the following files

file.txt
file.txt0121212
file.txt4r45454
file.txt23423423
file.txtdaedfadf

i want to list files with file.txt* but not file.txt.
ls -ltr file.txt* would list file.txt too. I want to exclude file.txt.
Would be good if the command is a single liner

Thanks in advance
Ammu
