A product that sounds similar, PostalSoft from FirstLogic, was used on a project I was involved with. We didn't use it for the parsing out of the data, simply used to verify and clean addresses that were entered by data entry folks (Forms 5.0 and later 6i web deployed app using ORA_FFI to invoke the provided routines). It sounds like it handles the parsing aspect as well, at least from their web site info:
"Offers multiline-parsing capabilities that find floating, unfielded address information stored anywhere within a record, and parses it into discrete fields." Might be another product to consider if the cost of buying is less than building. Regards, Larry G.
