What is the purpose of Geocode?
To create a pin map, that is, assign point objects to rows in a table. Data in the record (for example street address, ZIP Code, county, state) is used to match against a map (for example street map, ZIP Code map, state map) to determine where the point for that record should go.
When is Geocode active?
- When at least two tables are open (the table you are geocoding against and the table you are geocoding).
- When the table that you are geocoding against is mappable (graphic objects attached to records) and has an indexed field.
How do I access Geocode?
On the SPATIAL tab, in the Create group, click Geocode to open the Geocode dialog box.
