Hibernate version: 3.2.1.ga

If I use the folowing way to define a table in hibernate, what HQL operations can act on the properties "name" as a whole or singualrly(ie each element in the properties)

<class name="Person">
<id name="personNumber"/>
...
<properties name="name"
unique="true" update="false">
<property name="firstName"/>
<property name="initial"/>
<property name="lastName"/>
</properties>
</class>

Any help will be appreciated
