DESCRIPTION
This file, introduced with Name Standardization (Patch XU*8.0*134), holds
 
The "source name" that has these components is identified by the following
three fields:
                                                      
  File (field #.01)
  Field (field #.02)
  IENS (field #.03)
 
The "ANAME" cross-reference on the Family (Last) Name, Given (First) Name,
Middle Name, and Suffix fields keeps each component in synchronization
the component parts of a person's name as follows:
with the corresponding source name. In the case of Patch XU*8.0*134, the
source name is the .01 field (the Name field) of the NEW PERSON file
(#200).
 
The Degree and Prefix fields are not considered part of a standard name,
but can be used to build formatted names for display.
