  What about building an associative table with a row for each possible derivation and pointing them to a common value and doing a join to it?  


Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm afraid it's not really an option in my case. This solution would work just fine for a relatively small table whose fields have a finite number of possible values. The challenge would be to create this associative table for a huge table on (say) a name or address field. In this case, the number of possibilities will go through the roof, making this solution impractical.
