Must be in C, not C++
That said, you probably already know this one and I'm not sure it's exactly what you're looking for.
Basically, with two strings, a calculation for the distance between the two strings so can determine the closest match. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk/ http://www.dclug.org.uk/ http://www.isbn.org.uk/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/isbnsearch/ http://www.biglumber.com/x/web?qs=0x8801094A28BCB3E3
