Create address for OSC messages

Greetings from Spain,
I'm trying to send a couple of simple floats to another computer via OSC, that is a simple issue if we don't take into account OSC addresses.

The problem is that I need to send values with specifical OSC addresses (and decode them on this way) i.e: I want to send a float for decoding it using udpreceive as /test/A/float1 and another one for decoding it as /test/B/float1, but maxmsp recognize messages as "bangs" instead of floats.

- Is it possible to invent OSC addresses for sending values to other devices? How?

- What would be the right way for decoding those different values through udpreceive? In the past I extracted those different addresses from osculator and wiiremote without problem (i.e: wii/1/buttons/A), but now I can't remember if I used a "route", an OSC-route or a unpack object in order to do that.

Any help is really appreciated.
