presurnames, surnames

[ckworld 0]

I just bought TMG

 

 

Question: I have imported from Legacy with Genbridge. Worked fine.

 

 

I have a lot of Dutch names with presurnames, like “van Tol” or “ van der Roest”.

 

After import alt the presurnames came out as a full surname.

 

 

 

How can I change all the “ van Tol” ‘s in onte time and separating the presurname and surname without changing them one at a time.

 

 

Is that possible

I made a somwhat similar request. I imported a file with names capitalized and wanted the case changed. See the reply to my post on "Gang Updating Names". Basically, the answer is using John Cardinal's TMG utility. There is a link to the utility in the reply.

 

It worked for me. Hopefully, it is flexible enough that it will solve your variation of the problem too.
