Hi Gene,
Locations are kept in the Master Location list and if you edit it there, it changes all uses of that location.
One way of getting to the Master Location list is
View > Master Lists - Location

If, on the other hand, you have a consistent spelling error for a state or county that is used by a number of locations you can use Search and Replace by searching on the right fields. Watch all the options to make sure you choose the ones for your situation.
Search > Search and Replace.
Find where? Lists - Location
You may also need to search and replace in Lists - Location Short

Cheers,
Cathy

Fellow Listers,

  Is there a way to 'search and replace' say a location that
   says one thing but you want it to say another??

without having to go through all 275 odd records that say the wrong thing and manually changing everything??

  Thanx,

     Gene
