Hm, this is turning out to be more involved than I had 
hoped...Ruslan, let me ask more about the possible method approach 
that Francois suggested. Can you have more than one search/replace 
per method? And can you have a method in a loop? For example, can I 
replace every occurrence of "van", "von", and "de" in a field with a 
method? I don't think so, but I thought I'd ask...
