#. You can create an index for the `name` field of `res.partner`.
#. In the search you can use:

   ``self.env['res.partner'].search([('name', '%', 'Jon Miller)])``

#. In this example the function will return positive result for `John Miller`
   or `John Mill`.

#. You can tweak the number of strings to be returned by adjusting the set
   limit (default: 0.3). NB: Currently you have to set the limit by executing
   the following SQL statement:

   ``self.env.cr.execute("SELECT set_limit(0.2);")``

Usage with demo data
====================

There are some demo data that allow you to test functionally this module
if you are in a **demo** database. The steps are the following:

#. Go to *Contacts* and type the text **Jon Smith** or **Smith John** in
   the search box and select **Search Display Name for: ...**
#. You will see two contacts, and they are the ones with display names
   **John Smith** and **John Smizz**.
