Segun,
I am not sure what you are geo-coding your addresses to
if you are using postcode polygons - sectors? Would you not be better using a
point file such as the Royal Mail PostZon 2 million points with one for each
postcode and to +/- a 100 metres? It isn't very expensive (£400 or so alr
If i understand your
question correctly, then yes, if your data has unique block group ID's you can
determine the block group centroids (block group geocode).
It's just a matter
of joining your data with the block group data on the blockgroup
ID.
This of course
assumes you have a block grou

From memory it should be ignoring everything after the comma.
If you take a squiz at the MapInfow.ABB file, located wherever you
have MI installed, you will see that it comes after "!EOLNOSPACE"
What you should do is create a new column, specifically for geocoding.

Hi All
Brad,
The abbreviation file has a great deal to do with the
success of geocoding to a tiger line file. If you haven't
modified your MAPINFOW.ABB to help match up - that will help
a lot. The ABB file will help you with your ordinals (thats
the TH in 96th) also.

The short answer- NO. All records from all tables that are geocoded will
fall on the centroid. There is a program that randomly disperses points in
a table so that you can see all or most of the points. See directions

This comparative slownes is true of a number of features in MapX vs. the

You need to index the field. Table>Maintenance>TableStructure will get you
