I'm been unable to find anything on how to create maps.You don't.? When you create a database with an address field, a map will be automatically linked for that location.? I know that you can choose whether text or map is the default view.? I'm not familiar with the other details though as I have free groups.

If someone could point me to instructions or lay out how to do it, I would be most grateful.Harvey -- For Premium groups, you first have to create a Database with a defined column of type "address." After populating the table, users should then be able to toggle between text and map views. Hopefully others can speak to how effective this view might be for addresses outside of the US.?

Where is the toggle located?Don -- First, you must have a Premium group. Second, you must have defined a database table with a column of type "address." If you have both of these things, and open the table, the toggles between map and list views will be at the top of the page (immediately to the right of "Edit Table Properties"). Note also that -- for some unknown reason -- map view defaults to maximum zoom. I have to hit the "zoom out" button twice before my house comes into view. Hope this helps, Bruce |
