TTN3 address searching without postcode

Hi

I quite new to TTN3 so hopefully there will be an anwser to this problem I have come across.
I was going to a house today to carry out a job, the address I was given was York Avenue in Swinton, Greater Manchester, no postcoe.
I went to Find Address, entered Swinton, chose Swinton(Greater Manchester) then entered York Avenue but then I was faced with 9 different York Avenues .
How do I know which York Avenue is the one I want that is actually in Swinton? 6 of the addresses had Manchester postcodes, 2 had Oldham and 1 had a Bolton postcode.

So basically TTN3 was useless for me this morning.

Is there a way to just display the addresses in a given town?
I check with Autoroute on my PC and there is only 1 York Avenue in Swinton so why was I faced with all the others?

Any help would be appreciated.

Like you, i'm a tom tom 3 newbie too.

what version of tom tom are you on? I read on the tom tom site that the 3.03 update helped to reduce this issue.

seems to have worked for me so far this week.

Im using 3.02 at the moment, I'll have to try the 3.03 update then and see if that helps.

Cheers

Bingo, 3.03 now installed.
I have just seached for York Avenue and this time they are still all listed but the one in Swinton (one I wanted) is actually listed at the top - Result.

Thanks very much for that.

I do use checkpoint but not the camera database as I have an Origin B2 GPS unit anyway, sorry I couldnt return the favour.
