    3. Can't see if this has been raised before though I'm surprised if it hasn't! Transcribing letter D in Proper Case (Lower Case with first letter capitals for Proper Names), one reaches patches of foreign type names e.g. De Laney. They appear to have been ordered as though there were no space between the e & the L. Win BMD however doesn't approve and I just had a page with 14 warnings. Now I know I can safely ignore them but it is rather aggravating. Is there nothing to be done? Example: De La Mauriviniere followed by Delamere brings up a warning. Chris Hughes
