Hi Mike,
I fear I don't yet understand the problem. You have a road without a housenumber element next to it and you want to find it with the address search using the zip code ?
I understand him that he has a city name and street name, but no house numbers. So he wants to create the map in a way, that you don't need to enter a house number for address search. Mike, as far as I know that's not possible, but you can enter a random house number in this case. Thorsten

Hi Gerd, thanks for the reply. I have tried with the default style and it does work, but as far as I can see, only for buildings with house numbers. The buildings and places I am trying to find have names but not numbers. Is there a way to get it to work without needing house numbers, which are rarely present in OSM? I'm happy to just locate the street without a specific building if I have a node with addr:street and addr:postcode.
Cheers, Mike

Hi Mike,
AFAIR the search for zip codes in Basecamp should work . if you use your own style I'd suggest to try the default style. If that doesn't work as well, and you think that the OSM is correct, please post a link to your input file and I'll try to reproduce the problem. If the problem is in your style, follow the hints at the bottom of this link: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/news/2015/06/08/house-number-improvements

Hi all, I currently have a list of postcodes added to my map, and can see them in the Postal Code field of the Find Addresses option in basecamp, but they are not linked to any roads/houses, so any address searches with postcodes do not find anything. Can anyone please explain what I need to do to get postcodes working properly? There is a brief mention of mkgmap:postcode in the help, but it doesn't explain how to use it, and anyway, I only have the centre points of the postcodes rather than their enclosing areas.
Thanks, Mike
