     PARSNAME produces an SDF (Standard Data
Format) file.  This file type was chosen because
it can easily be "ported" into the various
environments in which the data may be used.

     For PC-FILE III, describe the fields as on
the previous screen's example and simply PORT it
in.

     For dBASE III, create a database using the
field lengths indicated and enter the command
APPEND FROM <filename> SDF.

     The PREFIX, LPREFIX, and SUFFIX files come
with this package.  They contain usual prefixes
("Mr", "Rev", "Capt" and so on)  but you may add
more using any word processor if you encounter
some we've omitted. Similarly, the LPREFIX
file contains common last name prefixes like
"Van", "De", "Von" and so on. Again, you may wish
to add to the list, or to the list of suffixes.
Our advice is to run through your unformatted
names with the lists we've provided, and update
the list and re-run if needed.

    Each list can contain a maximum of fifty
entries.
