Towards unique names
Steps:
- Put all the names in one text file (done)
- Sort the file and removed exact dups using textpad (done)
- Run the matcher on that file in mode 2 (rerun)
- Clean that match file manually for idiosyncractic issues (rerun - only 2 problems)
- Load all 7 base files into a dbase
- Load the matchfile into the dbase
- Use SQL to get the unique names for each entry in a base file (7 queries)
- Assemble all of the common variables together taking the best available (somewhat subjective) in SQL, and add the extra vars.
- Output the new master file to work with!
