Did not realize that was the problem.   Tried it with lower case.

Surname:  aber
Type:  Birth

And got…..

Record Type 
Surname 
First Name
Birth 
ABERCORN 
Marquis Of
Birth 
SMYTH 
William
Birth 
TACKABERRY 
Thomas
The first and last result look appropriate, but the middle one?

Now that I know there are results for lower case, I will try a few more.

It would also be helpful to allow wildcards like many search tools incorporate.
 
For example if I wanted to search for all births with names starting with MAC 
it would be nice to do something like:
Surname:  MAC*   or even just   MAC
Type: Birth
 
Wildcards would be helpful when there are many variations for the spelling of a 
name.

Here is an example.  I just searched for “Birth”.   The first name listed is 
ABERCORN.  Then I put in surname ABERCORN and did a search.  It found no 
results.

I have attempted to replicate -  Can't enter just a surname, Result- Blank 
return. 
 
Without success unless I enter a Surname which presently does not exist in the 
database.
 
Can anyone give me an example of a Surname which does exist but will not show 
on a Surname ONLY search?
 
Thanks
Jim

Here are the limitations I've found so far.
Can't enter just a surname, Result- Blank return.
However, If you leave the Firstname and Surname fields blank, and select Type: 
"Birth", etc., it will display a list of names.
This is counter intuitive. 
 
I would not release this like it is.

Hello Listers - 
 
We feel it is time to give you, our loyal and supportive users, an update on 
this project.
 
While it is a HUGE project which may never get completed, unless a lot more 
volunteers come forward, it most certainly will be very useful going forward. 
It will allow users to "narrow" the search in seconds compared to our current 
"Google-type" search method.
 
The professional programmer and I have over 7,700 records in a "test" database. 
We'd like you to give it a look, try it out AND report back to me "off list" at 
[email protected] with any comments you wish to make......... remember there is 
no such thing as an unwanted comment.
 
Go here - http://test.cotyroneireland.com/names.php

 
In the next few weeks, we'll do some final fine-tuning before releasing it to 
the general public,.
 
Best regards,
Jim
