Bill et al,

Over hear in the UK our national standards are prefixed with 'BS' - British
Standard, and given a standards number, in this case '7666'.
The BS7666 standard is the standard for creation of address gazetteers and
the 'Toolbox' is a piece of software commissioned by MI Corp to allow
creation of a gazetteer to the national standard.  It is only one of a host
of propriety software that allows you to do this but is MI's own add on.

BS7666 is a very important standard in the UK as most of us Local
Authorities use gazetteers extensively and the National Land & Property
Gazetteer (NLPG) is created using BS7666.

Hope that helps.
