Just discovered a really nasty bug in the search index! I think this has been present in previous versions too - Streetnames starting with "a" or "b" are NOT included in the search index (at least in Mapsource). I can't find home using the address search therefore. :-)

Sorry if you are talking about Mapsource and the MDR branch only, but I have successfully searched for Aakkulankatu in my Edge 705 some months ago. Then again, there should not be any ref=A1 or the like in Finland. In Germany, the motorways and trunk roads carry ref=[AB][0-9]+, as far as I remember. Could that (together with wrong sort order between numbers and letters) be causing the problem? Marko
