I'm trying to geocode using one of Arc Map 10's default address locators.  When I try to initiate the geocoding process on the next window, I can't, because the "OK" button is grayed out.  I've matched up all the address input fields; I can't figure out why this is happening.  Any ideas?

I am having the exact same problem. Did you work out how to fix it yet?

Opps, I feel pretty silly replying a couple minutes after asking, but for me it was simply a matter of changing the default location for where to save the output. I created a new directory called "C:\temp\" and saved my geocode ouput as a standalone shapefile to there and then I was able to press the "OK" button.

No idea why the default location that they provide does not work. ESRIIIIIIIIIII..........

See attached image; navigate your way to what ever output location you want.  Personally, I don't like to write to shapefiles, I like geodatabase feature classes.

Hope this helps-
That should just about do it....

Changing the geocoding output path worked for me as well.
