Description
Using the full name module, I can only get the last name to display in a view, where the full name is used with automatic node titles to be the title of a node. In the view, I am referencing Full Name: Field Name, and it doesn't matter whether I select the option "Default prefix first last suffix" or option "Last First Middle," I always get only the last name.

This is a duplicate of this: http://drupal.org/node/158630
though it seems it still doesn't work. As I've mentioned in some other thread either here or in the cck_address module's issue queue, CCK itself only allows the exposure of the first column in a multi-column field type so far as I understand it. In other words, CCK needs to be fixed to allow all fields of a multi-field module to be exposed to Views correctly. Please let the CCK crew know about this. Or, try and find the (old) issue I opened there and comment on it to bring it to the top of the queue. This is a serious flaw in the design that doesn't seem to be getting any attention.

Thank you for the response... I'll do some digging and see if I can't lend some support to a CCK patch or something along those lines!
