Do you mean there is a missing Postcode? If so it's probably the Post Office playing with numbers again.

Or do you mean the Postcode you use doesn't give you the option to put a particular house number in? If so, this is down to the Map details.

The Postcode returns a Long/Lat that TT converts to a point on the Map. It then chooses the nearest Street. This may, or may not, have any numbers associated with it.

Thanks for the reply, NO I mean there are missing postcodes, eg L13 ODL
an address off Queens Drive, in Liverpool.
OL13 9PP is another one, hence the question is there an updated postcode file available or a way to add these postcodes ?

Thanks

Richard

the newer postcode file is supplied with the newer map. If you use the new file with the older map, you do not get the extra codes, no benefit.
