Hi there,
Sometimes a name is written as John Smith, sometimes JohnSmith, sometimes JSmith sometimes J. A. Smith, Is there a routine that somehas made to help us compare to see if the names match? (Only if its full last name and full first name do we consider it a match.) Thanks for your help in advance K |

Do you have a list of names somewhere that you are comparing the list to? What do you want to do with the ones that match? Or do you just want a count of matches? |
