Why do I get matchKeys whose Address parts are not getting built correctly?
The MatchUp Object uses an address parser used to match inexact addresses, i.e. keyed in differently. This allows us to match records like 12 North Main St. to 12 N Main Street. It relies on known address key words and patterns in the mdMatchUp.dat file. Therefore typos or unknown address words need to be added or processed with a fuzzy matchcode. Some words are problematic, as they can represent a street name, po box, directional and a highway! This makes recognizing patterns difficult, potentially causing records to be missed as duplicates.
