I need help on creating/properties of address locators.
I want to use my own address locators, not the one served through ArcGIS Online (as this consumes credits).
I have successfully created my own address locators, and a composite of many address locators. But before I geocode I have to change certain items in my table, for example: In my table it has an apartment number as "#" or "APT" or "APT #", but the shapefile I used to create the address locator does NOT contain "#", "APT", or "APT #"...it contains "STE" for any and all address units.
I want to be able to use the shapefile how it is (with the "STE" units) and my table how it is (with the "#", "APT", "APT #").
Does anyone know a way for it to do this? I already tried messing with the address locator settings on spelling check, etc. I would hope there is a way to say "#", "APT", "APT #" = "STE". I can't find anything anywhere! I believe I saw somewhere once that you can relate a lookup table to say "#", "APT", "APT #" = "STE".
Thanks!
