I don't think regular expressions will help you here, because its designed for pattern matching rather than semantic interpretation, so your string.split() function will probably do as well.
But without a database to compare each token against, it'd be pretty hard to determine what level a token represents. If, for instance the right-most token is Zealand, ...

the data you are looking for is the field names for street name, adress range right and adress range left. usually in seperate fields as ... Lmin, Lmax the direction the street was digitized determines the left and right side which puts the min values at the approriate end of the segment. It is very time consuming to re-engineer a shape file to have correct ...

It is possible that the attributes necessary are available in the shapefile to do a reverse address lookup, but it's not required. I've seen shapefiles that didn't have any data other than the shape, so there's no guarantee that enough data will be available for you to perform a lookup with the shapefile alone.

Reverse Geocode (Geocoding)
Creates addresses from point locations in a feature class. The reverse
geocoding process searches for the nearest address or intersection for
the point location based on the specified search distance.
In ArcMap, the tool is located under Geocoding Tools. Note that you'll need to have an address locator to reverse ...

Let me point out first that there are also addresses that the US Post Office doesn't deliver to at all. Not even to a common mail receptacle or group of mailboxes. Certainly anyone can get a PO box at the nearest Post Office. Many times, a remote, or extremely rural address will still be serviced by UPS or Fedex.
The USPS designates each ZIP Code with a ...

The only publicly available source of actual addresses per street segment is the PAD file -- the Property Address Directory -- from the New York City Dept of City Planning. If you rely on centerline files such as TIGER or LION, these will provide hypothetical address ranges. The centerline data may be ok(and often is), but if you need to know the valid ...

What information is in the sql-table? Are you saying it is a sql spatial table or just a listing of building names with addresses?
if just addresses you would need to use the geocoding tool in arcmap.
(ver9.3.x) Under the tools pulldown select geocoding
(ver10) select the geocoding toolbar. This will create a special point file with all the records in ...

http://gos2.geodata.gov/wps/portal/gos

Metadata states:
The tabular data are derived from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) database.

QR Codes 'could' replace addresses (house numbers etc) http://delivr.com/qr-code-generator as they can can be applied to even down to equipment in a datacenter - all with location embedded. It is just how it is managed that is the barrier.

In light of my comment on MerseyViking's answer, I thought I'd elaborate just for clarity and completeness.
I work in the address parsing/verification industry for SmartyStreets. What you're trying to do, I think, is called "Single-line address processing" (we call it SLAP). It's a complicated task, though, because addresses will inevitably be very, very ...

Google's Terms of Use does not permit commercial (esp. automated) use of the data. Yes, Google appears to parse single-line street addresses and geocodes them, but it is not appropriate for commercial purposes as Mapperz has noted.
Also, standardizing addresses will be a bit of a bugger with Google's API. Google Maps is an address approximation service, not ...

you can try gisgraphy. it includes an address parser, a geocoder, and a reverse geocoder. (dont use the free service for batch, but install it on your server). fulltextsearch with synomyms, spellchecking can probably helps too. there is no problems if you need high volumes, because gisgraphy is available as webservices with several format (XML, JSON, PHP, ...

If you uncheck the "Case sensitive" option at bottom of attribute table, write in the "Look for" space and select the field of interest, you can get coincident rows highlighted (If you know the exact word you can leave the "Case sensitive" option checked).
After that you can use "Show selected only" to view in screen only the rows that match with you ...

Consider yourself lucky for having received an error message :-) I ran into a similar problem after changing the path names for some of my shapefiles. My computer is brand new and ArcMap does not necessarily get hung up in your hardware. Its own complexity could be more than enough.
Look up ArcMap in the Windows Reliability logging system on Windows ...

You can create a Composite Address Locator using ArcCatalog that has this functionality. You first create your individual locators, then add them to the Composite locator. You set the order of the individual locators in the composite locator setup. If the address does not find a match in the first locator in the list, it is passed to the next locator in ...

If you're using ArcGIS, or have access to it, the free Attribute Assistant add-in for ArcMap should be able to do what you're asking for. It allows you to set up rules for particular fields that get executed whenever the data it edited. See the overview pdf for more details.
In your situation, you could potentially use the NEAREST_FEATURE_ATTRIBUTES rule to ...

Yes, it is possible.
Google, Bing, MapQuest will all return address fields on a geocoding request. For some you have to add an extra flag that you want the fields (MapQuest).
Note that they all return the fields labeled differently and in different structures. e.g. one API will return "street" value as just The street "Main", where another will return ...

try http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3232516/geocode-an-ip-address then convert the response location to your spatial reference if you need to. zoom the map.
simple.
IP location is pretty broad though, so using the geolocation api would be more accurate.

Navteq supply us with point addresses data for Australia, and supply the same for many other countries (US included).
It's not tremendously cheap, but is thorough, vetted, and updated quarterly.
They provide the data in several different formats, from shapemaps through to generic RDBM-format.
I understand Navteq get their data from the same guys that Google ...

I asked a question recently, trying to achieve the opposite (had city, country wanted lat/long). I used this free database. It won't give you postcodes (so it's not really an answer), but it does give you city and country, if that is useful.

If you can export your data into an excel file or format it and copy it into the web form, you can use http://www.batchgeo.com/ to geocode. Note that this solution may not work if you are not allowed to send the information over the internet, or if you require better geocoding than the website can provide.
