The RSOUNDEX1;S7 modifier is used with the PARTIAL2 routine to match two strings using the Series 7 RSOUNDEX1 algorithm. Input strings are reversed before the algorithm is used to build the code. For example, If the string was ‘JOHN SMITH’, it is read as ‘HTIMS NHOJ.’ The algorithm is the same as the PARTIAL2 (RSOUNDEX1) routine in Series 7. See PARTIAL2 With Modifier (RSOUNDEX1;S7). for algorithm.
Note: All SOUNDEX related routines are limited to working with attribute sizes of 256
characters.
