Not sure what your point is. The GISDK line I gave was, of course, part of a much longer routine.
More: The odd part is how GISDK vs manual is so different. The progress bars look identical with either method, but the results are different. The original MS Access table has 12027 records. When done by hand, the dialog box reports 337 Records Not Located out of 12027. When run through the GISDK routine, the resulting layer has 12365 records (338 more than the original table!) of which 43 have no lat/long. If anyone could explain what that macro is doing, I'd appreciate it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Armando Scalise" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 06, 2005 11:00 AM Subject: Re: [Maptitude] Continued problems with Address Match macro > > Stan, > > I my experience, if you want to increase the hit rate when geocoding wth > Maptitude, you need to do some pre and post processing before calling > any of the Standard Interface Macros (""GISDK Locate Address" and > "GISDK Address Match").
