Is that truly a bug?  During Fileman lookup, I thought that Fileman did not
perform the Input Transform but used the user supplied input value.  I
thought the input transform was only executed if Fileman decided to add that
value to the database and thus performs the transform prior to storing the
transformed value.  I did not realize that Fileman performed the
transformation prior to doing the lookup.  If that is the case, then DPTLK
is buggy.  If Fileman does not perform the transform during lookup, then is
the DPTLK buggy?

I don't know all the reasons for how punctuation in names is managed to help
standardize the name parts, but an effort was made to come closer to the HL7
standard.

Steve, note that the problem is that the lookup routine (DPTLK, not
FileMan's DIC) is failing to perform the input transform prior to a lookup.
