Why don't you just have a country field in your database that you can search on (wouldn't have anything to do with the API)? If you just want to get coordinates for someplace on the globe then return the points within a certain radius or bounding box, you can do that from the API, but again, it would probably be better to use a database with GIS functionality to do the search. That has been discussed in this group before, you should be able to find it with a search. > > or is this solution only possibile with a own teleatlas/other company > database ? > > i do hope i explained it well enough > > dear greetings > > Raphael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
