Dave - The following search will give you the desired results:
You're best bet here is to Tag the records/people you want to export and
then Export the Tagged people to a new file. You can then, work with the
new exported file to create whatever you want.
1. I would start by finding all Springer's by going to "Search", "Find"
and select "Detailed Search Tab".
2. Look for Whom: Individual
Where to Look: Surname
How to Look: Equal To
What to Look for: Springer ----> This selects only Springer's
Check the Second Condition Box, plus check "And" condition
Look for Whom: Individual
Where to Look: Given names
How to Look: Wild Card
What to Look for: [T-W]* ----> This selects all 1st names
beginning with T to W.
Then hit the Create List button -- This will tag all of the Springer's.
3. You will then have the list of Springers whose first names begins with
a T thru W (Thomas to William)
4. Tag everyone in this list and then untag any that you don't want --
you will have some extra people that you do not want, e.g., Ted Springer
5. Then I would get out of the search mode and do a File Export those
with Tag 1.
Good luck.
