Fuzzy lookup

  • Hi all,

    I am new to SSIS Please bare with me.

    Here is my scenario.

    I have two tables TableA and referetable TableB

    create table tablea ( country varchar(100),city varchar(100),clean_city varchar (100))

    Create table tableb( city_country varchar(100),input_city varchar(100), output_city varhcar(100))

    I want to implement this in SSIS

    LOOKUP FOR CITY IN INPUT_CITY WHERE COUNTRY = CITY_COUNTRY.

    How can I acheive this using fuzzy lookup.

    Any help is really appreciated.

    Firstly, I think you meant 'bear', unless you have some communal flashing aspirations 😉

    Secondly, can you describe why you need to use a fuzzy lookup here? What's wrong with a normal lookup, or a join? A sample of your data would be illuminating.

  • Sorry bear with me:-).

    I got to clean my city data in TableA based on the similarities and confidences, want to use fuzzy match so that can clean any cities with spelling mistakes, special characters and numbers using the reference table input_city.

    My city column is with data like

    'Lonon'

    'MANCHASTAR35'

    '6765 Derby'
