My MySql experience is limited to simple updates and selects. I am
creating a genealogical site based on Old Church birth and christening
records. Currently I have over 70,000 entries in the database and I
want to link the parents together in order to see all their children.
Currently I have the following fields FatherGiven, FatherLastName,
MotherGiven, MotherLastName and I want to create a field called FRN
which if the Soundex of each of these fields stayed the same would
stay the same but would increment by one for the next Family
eg.
FatherGiven, FatherLastName, MotherGiven, MotherLastName, FRN
John, Smith, Jane, Doe, 1
John, Smyth, Jean, Doe, 1
James, Smith, Mary, Doe, 2
Etc
I can already do a Select statement that puts them in the correct
order but I have a hard time figuring out a Update statement that is
going to go through and check and create the FRN number.
Can anyone help me?

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
First up, I am using MS Access 2002.
I have a database which records analyst rating changes for a list of
companies on a daily basis. Unfortunately, the database has been set
up (by my predecessor, I hasten to add) so that each day it creates a
copy of the record for each company, changes the date to today's date,
and prompts the user for any changes of ratings on that day. The
resulting data table grows by approx 600 records per...
