[Quoted] Does anyone have or know of a better soundex type function than the one that comes with Oracle.

Since the Oracle Function keeps the first letter it does not find things like Cs that may be pronounced K

Example:
Actual word "KIPLING"
Search for Soundex('CIPLING') will not find KIPLING. Received on Wed Aug 02 2000 - 00:00:00 CEST
