Hi guys,
Does anyone here knows how to modify the navigation software 2007-2 so that it takes the FULL 7 digit post code entry instead of just 5. I have just modified my navigation software to show me the speed cameras but all thats left now is to modify it to take FULL 7 digit postcode entry.
Thanx

The extra data simply isn't held on the DVD nor is the database structure capable of storing, accessing and displaying such extended fields..

You can't make something out of nothing.

Anything is possible if you try hard enough...
Sure this is possible but do we have the headcount, training, technical skills and sensible timescales to deliver what has been requested?
I take your general point but sometimes some people just read too many motivational books...

The POI-based postcode implementations which, unless they've evolved over the last three years, are limited in accuracy IIRC and can be incomplete. Completeness of POI data may have improved over the years...
This approach CAN provide a discrete solution which, unfortunately, isn't integrated with the address database but provides an element of functionality.
With modification of user requirements anything "IS" possible. It's called management of expectations!
