Unfortunately I agree! This is one of the greatest features ..... That was never fully utilized in Legacy. I guess because of "Die Hards" that won't get away from putting physical buildings and institutions in with geographical locations. To my knowledge ... No other program developed this type of feature either.
It would be wonderful if this information could be utilized as you suggest and also in reports and in search routines. What a shame this GREAT feature has been neglected.
