[gps-talkusers] e: I'm having a very odd situation:

Hi, I had a kind of similar situation looking up a relative's address in Topeka Kansas. They live on Lakeside Drive. Well, turns out that it's not just Lakeside, but Southwest, or sw Lakeside Drive I could find the place when I virtually drove there from nearby like you did. It also helped when I talked with them on the phone and they told me, oh yah it's southwest Lakeside, not simply Lakeside Drive. Also, sometimes you need to be in an area near the city not actually in the city. For example, around here there are 2 choices for Berkeley, Berkeley Area, and just Berkeley. So it still ain't easy to find some places sometimes. Good luck!

Hi folks! I just have had a very odd situation.
My Brother lives at a house on astreet called Stanley Road, 
Cincinnati,

Ohio 45230.
Ok Now I did an address look up and the gps said no street 
available and so
I knew that in order to get to this street he had to go up a 
street called

Beechmont avenue.
Ok so I found Beechmont Avenue with 2 choices and I entered on 
the 45230.
Ok so I traveled virtually up beechmont and bingo on the left was 
Stanley
Road. So I turned in to Stanley Road and all the little streets 
which my
Brother told me about were there and his house is at the very end 
of the
road. So when I got at the dead end, I recorded a poi as his 
address.
Ok Here is where things get weird. I went back again did an 
address lookup
and I got the message No street found for Stanley Road. Is this 
a Tellyatlas

thing or a Sendero thing?
I was telling Dan that his street was nowhere to be found and his 
response

was "Well we really do live there."
But I can do this again and get the Lat Lon if this is what is 
needed but
why wouldn't this show up on the streets if the street does come 
up in a

manual search?
Thanks for reading.
