Offset Address Location

Inset Address Location
Specify how far from the ends of the street to inset an address either as a percentage of the line or polyline on which the address is being interpolated or a designated distance.
Percent from ends of street
Specify how far from the ends of the street as a percentage of the street. Percentage can range in whole numbers from 0 to 50.
From ends of street
Specify a distance and distance unit from the ends of the street. Distance can range in whole numbers from 0 to 32,767.
MapInfo Pro saves the inset and offset settings specified the last time you used the Find and Geocode commands (located on the TABLE tab, in the Selection group, and located on the SPATIAL tab, in the Create group) or executed a Find Using statement. Thus, the last specified inset/ offset options becomes the default settings for the next time.
When an exact match cannot be found:
Try Substitutions from MAPINFOW.ABB
When you choose this option, MapInfo Pro makes substitutions from the abbreviation file. You can make several kinds of additions to this file. These additions deal with various kinds of geocoding problems.
Use the closest address Number
Choose this option to match an address number to the nearest address range. This is useful when there is no range for the address, either because the address falls in a gap or beyond the range end.
Use a match found in a different boundary
When you use Find, you have the option of selecting a boundary to use in refining the process. MapInfo Pro searches for a street name and address name first. Then it finds out what boundary the address is in. When the address is in only one boundary, but not the one you selected in the Refine option, MapInfo Pro locates to that boundary.
