I asked a question several days ago, but I got little response, so I would like to ask it again. Am I am overlooking something or shouldn't there be ways of more closely controlling looking for duplicates on the merge module? In other words, I don't want Legacy to tell me that Mary Ellen Jones and Mary Jones might be the same person. I fully realize the default should do that, but since I know the database I'm working with extremely well in this case, I want to create a narrow set of instructions to get right at the ones I know are duplicates and make various passes through the database, not just one grand pass that takes an inordinate amount of time. Are there any ways to tweak the settings more fully? I guess the main question I'd like to ask is why there is not an EXACT SPELLING selection for given names like there is for surnames?
