Have a look at the chartonum of each char in the strings of the
company names to make sure there are no special chars used.
Like for example hard spaces, which alter the string of a word or
words if in between.
Filter command goes haywire if a "null" character (numtochar(0)) is
in a text (origin could be certain wordprocessors, databases or rev
itself)
