559 E JACKSON AVE 8133 S HURON AVE What does the E and the S stand for? East and South respectively? Is E Jackson Ave and S Huron Ave in your roads table as written? Or is it East Jackson Ave and South Huron Ave respectively?
There are a few things to check. First check that MapInfo understands that you have street numbers before street names. You can find this setting in Options>Preferences>Address Matching... Second read up about the rules regarding the abbreviation file. Check out the abbrevation file: MapInfo.ABB which can be found in the directory MapInfo was installed in. >From the looks and sounds of it I think that on your PC, MapInfo is setup to expect street names then street numbers. PS: I am intrigued so a response would be grand.
