George,

I wouldn't call that a "senior moment" - it's a bug! It turns out that the
name-specific features of the utility delete the name index; in that case,
TMG rebuilds the indexes for you when you open the DB. What I forgot to do
was to delete the name index when the "Find and Replace" feature was used on
a name field. It's a harmless bug, for the most part, but it causes
confusion and I'll fix it for the next release.

I'm glad that even with the confusion you still found the utility valuable.

John
