Are you using Autoroute yourself?

I have about 100 locations I want to overlay onto the map so I can see
which are close to each other

Tricky

I used it for a similar thing a while back. I do sitll have it on my pc.

If you want you can send me the data and I will whack up and example of
how it might look

If so send me an email to this addy, with the data -
guitarXXguruXXXXXXXX222@xxxxxxxxxxxxx remove the X's

When you put them on the map they will just be little dots - if you want
the peoples names on the dots then it might start getting a little messy,
especially if they are very close - i think on autoroute you can have the
dots, and when you put your mouse of it it will tell you who that is - but
ofcourse u need to software running to do it rather than just an image.

Thanks for the offer but I would be shot for even giving out one postcode
from our database let alone a spread!

Of course, the chances of you being a competitor are very slim but you never
know. Thanks anyway

The idea of hovering the mouse over the pushpin to reveal the account code
and company name is all I need to do anyway

Which version of Autoroute do you have? 2006 is the current one but I don't
need to pay for functionality I don't need

Cheers

Tricky
