Your zip code data needs to be defined as character data in order to match (geocode) with zipcode pt file or street address file.  Once you redefine the field, the program will recognize it.

I have a file with three fields: local number, zipcodes, and
membership numbers. It's in a .txt, no hidden "this is a number or
text" to it, just three fields.

When I try to map my own data, I get a notice that my data does not
contain zip codes. I'm simply clicking on new map, map my own data.
Not doing anything with dataviews or anything.

I didn't have this problem at first, but the more I played with
maptitude the more finicky it got.

Any ideas?
