In the netherlands it is very common to have a name that has a signature like

Firstname lmiddlename astnameprefix lastname (for example, 'Dennis Bartus de Vries' or 'Johannes van der Vaart').

I would like to be able to list the persons in the last name order like:

Vries, de Dennis Bartus
Vaart, van der Johannes

Not only is this common practice out here, but especially since very often these 'middle' parts change from generation to generation (at least in the past)

However, when narrating, I would clearly like to use Dennis de Vries and Johannes van der Vaart.

I have so far put all the last names in like
First: Dennis
Middle: Bartus
Last: Vries, de

Any suggestion? I don't mind changing the applicable last names, if I get a better situation by that...

Thanks in advance,
rgds,
Ronald

Let me think of something. I also want to introduce macros, so you can automatically move the "van" or "van der" to another field if necessary.
