NOTE:  When dividing a query by Last/Org/Group/Household name, you can use the "Is Between" operator (example: Last/Org/Group/Household name Is Between A and N).  This will include all names that start with the first letter up to, but not including the second letter.  In the example above, names starting with Nz would not be included.  Be sure to have your ranges overlap (... Is Between A and N, ... Is Between N and T) to include all of the names.  Also note that if including the letter Z, you will need to include the "Begins With" operator (example: Last/Org/Group/Household name Begins With Z).
