If your record has an address number that does not match the one in the table you are matching against, MapInfo Pro skips the address during automatic geocoding and gives you a list of known address ranges during interactive geocoding. Select the closest address range from the list or press Ignore to skip the record. Depending on the precision with which you want your records to spot on the map, choosing a close address range is probably fine.

You can also have MapInfo Pro select the closest address from the list automatically. Select Options in the Geocode dialog box. MapInfo Pro gives you the option of assigning the closest address number when an exact match cannot be found.

Choosing the closest address does not change the address in your table. MapInfo Pro only uses the coordinates from that address to spot your record at that location.
