Actually, I read an article a few months back (can't recall where, probably VBPJ) about soundex. It gave a list of words (not complete) that were very similar in sound (and phoeneticaly as well) which the SOUNDEX() function couldn't evaluate as a close or identical match.

I'll try to find the article and post the sample words list they had (if I can survive the search in my home office that is... everything is perfectly organized in random and harmless (unless looked at or touched) piles and stacks.

Makes tax-time SO much more interesting!
