I believe I have ran across a method of doing what I am looking to do before, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere. I want to query for similar words. I thought I had seen an expression that would allow you to retrieve entries that were 80% similar, etc. I may have dreamed it.

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Conversely, if anyone can verify that such an expression does not exist, please let me know. I can think of ways to do it through code, but I am really looking to keep everything in a simple SQL statement.
 
I recall seeing an Access algorithm for searching for similar names, but forget where. Try searching this site with appropriate words.
