>As a starter you can always analyze 'clean' street names ( i.e without the StNum ), by using something like CHRTRAN( PStreet, "1234567890", "" ). Then you can compare 'clean' strings. The StNum part is easy to retrieve.

Toda raba. Excellent idea. I would also use array of words in PStreet and compare soundex of them with portion of Live street. Sounds good to me.
