Try

select T.* from Table1 T where exists (select 1 from Table2 T2
where T2.StreetNum = T.StreetNum and
T2.StreetName = T.StreetName and T2.City = T.City) into cursor table3 nofilter

If the field lengths are different, try casting the shorter field to the longer, e.g.
T2.StreetName = cast(T.StreetName as C(30))

In addition, you may want to use UPPER function to perform case insensitive comparison.
