Re: First / Last name Parsing... routines.

You should be able to find plenty of discussions and example code on the net...

If you find one you like, but in a language you don't know...we can
probably help port it to RPG.

However, as others have said, you're never going to be able to get
100% accurate. Plan on having a user review whatever you output.

Does anybody have a link or procedure they are willing to share?

I have a field that contains a name (ie:  first mi last  or first last or a ton of every variation you can think of) But I need it broken out in 3 fields  first mi lastname.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Tim
