AddressFinder-NCOA-interactive mode

When I run the update from AddressFinder and choose Interactive Mode, will it change the Address Information fields on shared addresses?  If I were to change an address on a record and save, it asks if I want to change it on all shared addresses.  If I say yes, the address is changed but not the Address Information fields on the More button.  I understand the Attributes don't move from the original address to the copies.  It seems they are assumed to be specific to each instance of the address.  But I don't have a clear understanding of the Address Information.  Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think my post made much sense.  Let me try again.  I'll be processing the AddressFinder results in Interactive Mode (manually, one at a time).  Very little of the help files deals with the Interactive Mode so I'm wondering if an update to a constituent with shared addresses will populate the More Button as well as the basic street, city, state, zip.  During everyday address updates, the info under the More Button doesn't copy, only the address does.  Is this different in the AddressFinder Update?


Two more questions:

• If I use the Skip Button, what happens to the record I skip?  Can I come back to it?
• I'm told there's the possibility of duplicates if I stop the update at some point and begin again at a later time.  Does that mean the constituent duplicates?

Thanks!
