The address search results include the 'kind' variable. Which means if I search 'm', I'm going to get all contacts with 'Home' addresses without 'm's. How should I exclude this?

4,810 PointsHe wants to exclude the 'Kind' of address from the results, so if you were to search for an address that contained 'home' it would only contain the addresses that had it as part of their address i.e. 123 home lane. Currently it would show every 'home' address.
