My apologies for my vagueness in asking my question.

    My company is deploying customer informational sites in various
countries, and I'd like to know whether or not there are industry standards
common informational fields such as:

First Name; Last Name; City; etc...

These input fields will be distributed worldwide, and we'll be limiting the
size of these fields, so I'm wondering if there's an industry standard for
what these lengths should be.

I doubt there are any such standards, and even if there are, I don't see
why they would be specific to C++.  Maybe you should ask in comp.std.misc.

That does not seem to be related to C++ but rather to various data
standards.
