I am trying to find surnames in my database that are not being used.
If I don't know the maiden name of a woman, I enter her surname as [[Smith, wife of John]]. Once I find her maiden name, I update her record accordingly but I know that I may not have gone back to the Master Surname List and deleted the temporary name. I would like to clean them up now. If I run the Surname Summary list, these surnames don't show up in the list and I suspect that they might be included in "No Surname". If I open the database in Access and look at tblNR, I see that there is a column for "Used". I thought that those not used would have Used = 0 but this is not the case. Some of the ones that are used also have Used = 0. Can anyone provide some insight into this? Thank you!
