 Thanks. . .

 Will look into the HotFuzz() function at the end.

There wa a recent discussion on one of the LinkedIn Access forums about
optimising a 
"fuzzy matching"  function.   Final Test code is here:
http://code.google.com/p/fast-vba-fuzzy-scoring-algorithm/source/browse/
trunk/Fuzzy2

Try the HotFuzz() function at the end.  

I think I may have also have some Levenshtein distance code sitting
around somewhere.  I 
will have a dig around.
