Thanks to all. I may be back after we've clarified the issue a bit more
on our end.

I just made three temporary junk bib records in our
OPAC (Voyager): one with a $e in the 100, another 
without $e in the 100, and a third as the name/title
string in a 700$t. Same name, same title for all three
bibs. To see what would happen when I searched, using
the name only in our Name/Title index. They all file
together. Which, I think, is what Deborah is looking
for.

So, Bob, it looks like Voyager does the ignoring of $e
as you imagined a system would/could.

I have found a name-only search in the Name/Title
index in Voyager is quite useful for grouping the
established and unestablished titles under a
particular name.
