Inserting non breaking spaces

[Michele B.]

Bonjour,

Can we insert non breaking spaces in Names field? Wether a specific name is written in one or in two words I would like to find both in a Results list. For example, Des Marais and Desmarais in the same list.

Thank you for your help,

Mich

Bonjour, Michèle,

But if you leave off the prefix, you should find both. (for example, looking for "Marais" will find you both Des Marais and Desmarais, or looking for "Pont" will find you "Du Pont, DuPont, and duPont - and du Pont de Nemours, & de Pont de l'Arche, du Pont de Compiégne, etc".)

Merci Dennis. If I look for Marais, the list includes only Des Marais . Is there a preference I should check?

A la prochaine

Michèle

I was at my friend's Ghislaine place when I replied your answer. She is the one having problem with Des Marais / Desmarais. I am using The search box at the op of the people sidebar. Should I ask her to try using the Find Panel ?

Bon nuit, Mich
