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".
