Hi Everyone,

Has anyone made an fixes about the name search for last names that are a double (Van Able) in single line search? I've created an alias of the last name, but the single line search still only recognizes the second portion of the last name (Able).

Any noggin thoughts you all have would be awesome.

  • Chris -

    If you enclose the name in quotes like "van able" it should search on the whole thing as a last name.

    HTH,

  • Thanks Heather. How are things in Seattle?

  • Hi Chris

     

    Another suggestion in this scenario – you can replace the space with the wild card *

     

    Eg single line search on Paul Van*Able

    Advantage of doing it this way is it will also find the record if it was entered without a space, so either Van Able or VanAble will be matched.
