Converts country to ISO 2 character name.
CountryMatchReturn2CharacterName(CountryValue, UseFuzzy)
Note: "Usefuzzy" when set to true will perform a phonetic match on the long name of the country name in an attempt to catch spelling errors. When set to false will look for an exact match ONLY.
- Should be replaced with true or false (Do not use True or False)
- If not specified will default to false
- If the correct country CANNOT be determined with fuzzy set to true, then the original data will be returned
If wanting to turn on the fuzzy option (true) it is recommended that a pass FIRST be run with fuzzy set to false so that the subsequent pass only shows changed data that DID NOT match exactly.
