Hello Elizabeth, For the cost conscious, I would recommend Microsoft MapPoint 2004 combined with Map-In-A-Box from Mapping Solutions ( <http://www.mappingsolutions.com/mapinabox/na/> http://www.mappingsolutions.com/mapinabox/na/). MIAB is a product which bridges MapInfo and MapPoint. Essentially you can get Navteq streets (although not the latest edition) displaying in a MapInfo Pro map window, route, drive time, address look-up and geocoding. It works with both the North American and European versions of MapPoint which means cheap access to Navteq data that would normally costs many $'000 (perhaps even breaking 6 figures) for all countries available. If you already have MapPoint 2004, there is a demo version of MIAB available. Regards, Warren Vick Europa Technologies Ltd. <http://www.europa-tech.com/> http://www.europa-tech.com

I looked into MapMarker and found it just too expensive, but then in searching I found a few products for just a few hundred dollars. Does anyone know why such a discrepancy in prices? I need to be able to geocode to exact location for address, not just a general street location (which I have found a few programs to do). I was thinking about GeocodeCD by Geolytics. Anyone have any experience using it? Any other recommendations for $2,000 or less? Thanks. Elizabeth Caponi
