TQSL applies some of the same "fuzzy matching" for. County names. One other is to change "ste." to "Saint". I'm going to steal some of Dave's ideas as well, as that's valuable experience.

Dave:
? ?This helps me greatly in managing my supplemental statistics.? Your efforts in writing and supporting DXLabs are far understated.
+ I haven't ever pursued the "Worked All USA Counties" award, but I know what would someone pursuing that award would face if he or she had to manually correct the variations in county names reported by callbooks. So I built a simple mechanism that made it easy to add corrections as they were reported. It's been a long while since logging a QSO with a U.S. station has resulted in DXKeeper reporting an invalid county name that it couldn't correct.
