in reply to Proper case for names
If you wanted to get closer to your objective, you should shoot for "Proper case for names in the English language". IMHO, this is not a problem to be solved by perl or programming altogether. Wouldn't this be better tackled by handling the your data-entry methods?

Yes, entering clean data is easier than cleaning it later. However, I'm dealing with a large established
database, with over ten million names. Errors do creep in over time... | [reply] |
