Interestingly, my data has longitude and latitude available (in columns 10 and 11). I start by importing the data (by zipcode at the beginning because Maptitude doesn't show an "import by longitude-latitude" option).
Maptitude leaves about 5% of the records (with no zip) with blank Long/Lat in those first couple of columns; yet the Long/Lat from the original data are sitting out there in columns 10 and 11. Just can't seem to get Maptitude to move them to the first columns where Maptitude places the geographic data. But I could manually enter that in those two lead columnsÂ…. Seems a bit counter-intuitive. --- In [email protected], "Nick Nicholas" <tthedemo@...> wrote: > > Hi Bruce, > > > > Why don't you just import the EXCEL file?
