The Oracle 9iR2 docs on SQL functions describe soundex.
Head over to http://docs.oracle.com.

Subject: anyone have any soundex scripts?
I was on a project a few years ago where we used a soundex algorithm to determine and eliminte duplicate data.
For example we would have:
301 Fairfield Lane
301 Faerfield Lane
Notice the typo? The soundex algorithm caught it. Unfortunately I forgot to grab a copy before I left. Everytime I do a google search on soundex I get a theory website explaining the math behind it.
anyone have one written? or know where I can find one? It is incredibly useful.
