I've just got a task to compare to different access databases to see if there
are any adresses that match between the two databases. The two databases are
sorted in the same fields, adress, location, zip code and customer (and some
other unimportant ones). The problem is that the two databases are not
structured in any way, i.e. the adresses are for example main road 43, main
rd 43 and main rd. 43 the same is true about the other categories, there are
differences within the same database and between them.
What I would like to have is one database where you can see which database
the adress (or subject) origines from and to see how many of the same adress
there are at each adress. The problem is that each one of the databases
contains approx 250 000 lines (or adresses) so it is not possbile to adjust
the adresses to the same style (i.e. main road and main road) by hand.
Currently there are no relations etc between the databases as they are made
in two different "documents", i.e. it is just raw data of two companies that
has been put into the databases.
I would appreciate help a lot, thanks
