Retrieve records with approximate attr values fromthe LDAP directory (LDAP class)


This callable function retrieves all records (entries) from the LDAP directory for which the attribute type you specify has a value that matches equally or for which some locally-defined approximate matching algorithm (based on spelling variations or phonetic match, for example) returns "True" for the search string you specify.

Syntax

[%number =] ldap:FindApprox( string, string, doc, [AttributesOnly= boolean], - [ReturnAttributes= stringlist], - [BaseObject= string])

The syntax terms and most of the usage notes for this function are the same as those for FindEQ.

For additional information, see "Using the Find methods".
