Basic SoundEx algorithms are not that difficult to implement yourself.

For a good example, check out the following link:

Hope that helps,

I want to be able to include a soundex function in my
asp.net pages do compare values users enter in a phonebook
against the actual data in Active Directory (AD).

we used to use sql server, but the source data has now
moved from sql server to AD where there is not a native
soundex function.

Hi,

I have developed both server side and client side soundex
implementati on in one of my old project. If you can
elaborate your requiremrnts I can help you.

There is inbuilt Soundex function in SQL server. If you
are looking for spell check implementation based on
soundex you can refer the MS word dictionary too....

Let me know if you need furtehr ehlp.

Populate the data from Active Directory (with a certain applied filter) and
then perform your own custom SoundEx (see link I sent in previous reply) on
that.

Hi, I'm curious about soundex. All I know that it's a way for making spelling- error-tolerant word matching. What I want to know is whether the soundex algorithm are made exclusively for english language, or can it be used for any arbitrary language with satisfactory performance (by 'satisfactory performance' I meant that it can detect at least 80% spelling-errors). What about PHP soundex support? TIA

Hi I'm using SOUNDEX mysql function to find similar sounding names from a table with 2 million distinct names. Unfortunately there is a single soundex code for every 200,000 names! Meaning there are only 200,000 distinct codes for 2 million entries. Is there any other function / library / technique to work around this immense 1:10 redundancy ? for example, soundex for 'avis', 'apex' and 'apps' is A120, but I'd

Hi All, I have database with names on which I want to use the soundex option. So I have created two seperate fields for the Lastname and Firstname in which I save the Soundex version of a new name I save in the database. I have the soundex code with the 6 numeric option. So I save for example in the field LastnameSE = 600192 and in the FirstnameSE = 545910.

Just wondering if anyone out in query-land has used "Soundex" or "Difference" before to find field values that "sound the same". Similar to LIKE but very different. I was shocked when I heard about it, so I've been playing around. Access doesn't seem to like it. Am I just incompetant? Thanks - LB (me using Northwind to goof around with) qrySoundexPlaying: SELECT Customers.* FROM Customers

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
