Some
of the lists contain a “distance” condition to
determine if a violation is present. “Distance”
refers to the amount of characters between the
first character of one keyword and the first
character of another keyword. Consider the
following entry:
First Name:_John_ Last Name:_Smith_
The Forms - First Name, Last
Name list has a “distance” condition
of fifty (50) and the commonly used form fields of
“First Name” and “Last Name”. In the example
above, a violation will trigger as the number of
characters between the “F” in First Name and the
“L” in Last Name is equal to eighteen (18).
For an example of an entry that would not
trigger a violation, consider the following:
The first name of our new employee from
Switzerland is John. His last name is
Smith.
In this example, the number of characters
between the "f" in "first name" and the "l" in
"last name" is sixty-one (61). This exceeds the
distance threshold and does not trigger a
violation.
