Transferred Data Question

After transferring data from a Garmin Street Pilot c340 to a new Garmin nuvi 50LM, the address is not displayed on transferred favorites.  The data is in the Comments field in the Garmin Base Camp software and shows the field in the 50LM, but the 50LM does not display the address.  How do we get the 50LM to display the addresses for a favorite/waypoint that has been transferred in using the Base Camp software?
