I'm looking for software/code that performs pattern/string comparisons, i.e.,
String A in field B has a x% match/correlation with String C in field D. Specifically, I'm matching names & mailing addresses and trying to identify potential duplicates. (Capabilities beyond soundex() are required.) (Oracle
7, Solaris 2.3, PL/SQL, Embedded C environment)

Product names/vendors/references would be much appreciated!
