* Working with Places

[RogerF]

Sorry -- senior moment,

I have a number of Places of the form "*.ESS" or "*.KEN" which, with hindsight, would be better classified as part of Greater London. I can create a List of such places, but I can't seem to find a way of displaying that list on the map, such that I can decide which are indeed Greater London, or are further away in their original counties. Help?

You can select multiple Places in the Records window and then use the Map window menu to Map Locations for Selected Place Records.

If you have produced the list of selected places with a query, select them in the query result set and then, similarly, use the map window menu to Map Locations for Selected Place Records.

You can also use Tools > Work with Data > Places and select multiple places from the list and then click View in Map. (If the county codes are comma seperated from the other parts of the place name you can sort on the county code column to bring them all together for easy bulk selection.)

Thank you, Lorna. Things are always clearer in the morning.
