Hi Felix,
Did not try it separately. If done in one run, no codepage, no latin1, then index works fine. In my eyes something goes wrong once one leaves the default (plain ASCI) value.
Yes, you're right, I have made both the UK map and the Baltic map without those options and the index is much better. It sometimes still pops up a mapsource error dialog when you type an incomplete name and press the find button (but, weirdly, doesn't always do that).
So, great, the search index works reliably for cities now. The downside, of course, is that all of the accented characters have been replaced with their "dumbed down" versions.
Well the more I played with it, the more it becomes apparent that the whole process of creating addresses and the index is flawed. Very often a street will be inside a city that is spelled differently. E.g. many streets in "Mödling, Austria" will be found in "Moedling, Austria", but "Moedling ist not available in the autocomplete. This happens whether we use a codepage or not, some other streets are correctly registered in Modling/Mödling (depending on whether we use a codepage or not): This address below cannot be found when entering a city - as inside the city autocomplete list only Modling exists, but the street somehow got registered in not existing city Moedling....
Thanks,
