There will be no differencen in a routing application, but in a mapping application. When I drive around my NaviPOWN marks red all residentials without a name. So whenever I have time I turn into that street to take a photo of the name sign. I will waste time on searching. If there is none, this will happen over and over agan. That's why we need to have a tag to turn off the name check. Lulu-Ann -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
