This is difficult to expalain so i will try and give you an example
Record Surname Age Town
1 Smith 50 SMITH AB
2 Jones 45 Leeds
3 Patel 38 PATEL AR
What someone has done is put in the wrong data in town name and instead used details that we put in a different field.
What i want to do is write a query that finds all the wrong ones. in this example it would pull off records 1 and 3
All the wrong records are in a format of SURNAME INITIALS Obviously it would be ideal if they were the same so i could put
where surname = town name,
But although they have part of the column the same it is not fully. Can someone advise the code i would need to use to find this, and if i need to define between capitals and lower too. Many Thanks
