I did it a couple of times a while ago but now i can't remember how I did it. Do I have to get them in longitude and latitude first by geocoding then what.. how do I get a kml file to import into maps.google??? I need serious help. I have 50 houses a day to map. Or any suggestions for a solution. you seem like a smart guy and i have been searching the net for one year to try and find a simple way to map multiple addresses from excel.

Like you I rolled my own from inputs, including yours. One particular difference is I included was a check link. A generated hyperlink to Google Maps at the returned geo Location. It allows for some user validation that the address is where they said it was (http://thinedgeofthewedge.blogspot.com/2007/08/excel-spreadsheet-for-getting-geo.html) I see Yahoo maps supports returning an image. What would be fantastic would be to import that image directly into the spreadsheet. Thats for another day! John Jon,

It is perfectly suited for a task like this. I'm no longer with the firm, but if you need some internal help, ping folks in the Virtual Earth/MapPoint group. :) Jon, perhaps you should give Microsoft MapPoint 2006 a try.
