Thanks for the response. That clarifies how come I can't find the address using geocode.
As I have 345 out of 4900 addresses that I couldn't find programmatically using the Geocode Service, can anyone suggest my best option for doing this programmatically in a batch PHP script? Even if the match doesn't end up being "exact", it should be good enough for my purpose, as I need it primarily for proximity.
