Hi,
I want to build a Pl/sql program with name matching features and gives output in terms of percentage match.

for eg:
If my database has the following 3 rows
a) John Barry
b) Beckham John
c) Joseph John Augestine

and I give 'John' as input parameter, I should get percentage wise matching with each of the above rows with soundex criteria taken into care.

Can somebody send me an example code?
Regrads,
Bhagwan Singh
