Andrews,
If your index is just like you wrote (name+lastname) then trimming is likely to kill your search. ie: if name and lastname are 10, 15 in length "John", "Brown" would be stored in index "John Brown ". Spaces before "Brown" are needed for a successfull search (if lastname specified).
Use a seek expression like this :

lcExpr = padr(m.name,fsize("name","mytable"))+;
padr(m.lastname,fsize("lastname","mytable"))
?seek(lcExpr,"myTable","myCombinedTag")

This makes an "exact" search. If you trim lastname part then you'd be making a search based on current state of "set exact".
