Ok.. This may be far reaching, but heck it can't hurt to ask.. right? This is what I'm trying to accomplish. I have a series of addresses that I would like to import into a google earth type map (or similar mapping type program), which would put a "tack" type icon on the map where the address should be located, etc. Anyone have any suggestions how this could be done? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I reckon you could create a kml file and then open it it Google Earth.
Entia non sunt multiplicanda sine necessitate
Any suggestions how I could obtain the longitude and latitude for each address without manually looking up each address? It appears for at least google earth this will be a requirement.
Oh -- no, I don't. I'd start with Help in GE.
Well I appreciate the info and I'll have do some researching! Thanks again!
Have a look at www.batchgeocode.com
Thanks jonbolton! Do you think there could be anyway to add this process to a spreadsheet; so the mapping could actually appear in the spreadsheet?
You mean you want the maps in the spreadsheet and not on Google Earth??? I'm not sure, but I doubt it. You would need the mapping files and it would make the spreadsheet MEGA HUGE. Better to use the right tools for the right job IMO - use the power of Excel to get your addresses and geocoding info, and the power of Google Earth to see it all visually.Originally Posted by lilsnoop
Sorry, can't be more help I'm afraid.
