I must appologise, the code doesn't create an entry for
every word just the first and second one. So a search
for Via Wolfgang... and Wolfgang... could be expected to work.

I will change it so that all words are done.

Also I would recommend trying on a small area first, because there
may be a problem caused by so many 'Via' names and also it
is easier to find problems from a smaller area.
