Small question about Crosslinked Name

Hi.
i have a small question.
I have seen a movie in my Database with a Crosslinked Name, which has as the only difference a other written L in it.
Can Crosslinks like that be removed, or only for the local Database?

I ask that cause it seems that it does not make any difference for the Credit Lookuptool ( and i think for the Profiler itself ) if a name is for example written
Arnold Schwarzenegger
ARNOLD Schwarzenegger
or ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER
everytime it shows the same result on screen

Unfortunately (or not) the name database is not case-sensitive so you can't remove the crosslinks. But you can use the Credited As field to point out the difference in the actual on-screen credits (should never be used for names in all CAPS though).

Ahhh thanks......havent found any example in my own database to test what happens in the profiler itself ( only thing i did was add someone only written in Captial Letters, but a existing Entry of this Person was used in the End ) with such Profile entrys.
