I need to reconcile similar string to one the longest string. I am stuck with agrep, how would you do it? Update: better problem definition I have a .csv of addresses of bakeries and I want to know (1) how many branches a bakery has and (2) how many businesses there are. I therefore extract only the names of the bakeries (see sample below) and now I need to find all the strings that are so similiar that they represent the same business. Then I count the business and the number of branches. <pre><code>c("5 Meister Bäcker", "5 Meister Bäcker H. Breunung GmbH & Co.

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
