February 1st, 1989
Howdy!,
I have developed a soundex routine in CLARION to allow users to
search for similar sounding names in a database. When the user adds a
record to the database, the soundex value of the name is calculated
(as an edit procedure) and is stored in the database as a key. Later,
when the user then requests a search by similar sounding names,
perhaps because of a misspelled name, the soundex value of the search
name is calculated and a search is performed using this value as a
record selector.
Released in the public domain by the author on February 1st, 1989.
