Is there a way to use the zipcodes i have in my tables to create pushpins on a map? Would I need software other than microsoft office? I have office 2003 by the way. I have tried using dynamic maps (trial version) but wasn't able to figure out how to get started before the trial version was up. Maybe there is something similar but simpler out there. If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great?

streets and trips will let you import a list of addresses from Access or another source onto a map.

Thats the only program I know of atm that does "push-pinning"

But it will do an entire list at a time I don't really like to use Streets & Trips for this.

Momie,

Take a look at the attached 'MapQuest' file.
It will take a address out of an Access Database, and open up MapQuest with a map &
a 'Star' on the location.

I know John (A member of this Forum) has been working on a demo, but this should get
you started.

Good luck, sad.gif
