Hi Bill,

Thank you for your quick reply.
A few days ago I managed to get the same result, but... the 'final' result we 
both get was the short Pluscode in column 1 and the place name comes in column 
2. Of course there is an option to combine these two columns by making use of 
an other function. The function Pluscode_to_address is creating the illusion 
that the entire result of this function will be presented into only one column.
If you are making use of Google Maps then you can see that the details of a 
selected place wil inform you with a short pluscode-syntax.

I am using the short Pluscode to identify an audio-file with the name of this 
Pluscode.
This audio file will be used in a waypoint what will be part of a route in a 
Garmin Navigation device.
The waypoint is 'playing' its MP3-file when you are nearby the place of the 
particular waypoint. No more reading in a guide during my bicycle-trip but a 
sweet-voice who is informing about the highlight I am passing during this trip.

Anyway thank you for spending your time in this case and if you can find a way 
how to program the short Pluscode-syntax in the way that the result will come 
into one column, please feel free to sent me one more message.

Kind regards,

Peter Drukker
