On a transaction search I am including "Shipping Address : Internal ID" so that I can reference the Shipping Address record. The search returns the correct text shipping address and an "Address Internal ID".  When I check the customer, this "Shipping Address : Internal ID" is not on the Address subtab and the actual text has a different ID. Is there a trick in Address IDs?

The `Address Internal ID` , which is the internal id of the address book line

and is used for address selects on transactions

And there is the `Internal Id` of the address, which is the internal id of the address subrecord, which is not nearly as useful

you only get access to the `Internal Id` on transaction searches

you need to use an entity search, or at least an entity join to get to the `Address Internal ID`

thanks, that did give me the extra focus. I switched the search to a customer search and found that field. cheers
