Geocode an Address

[Dana F. Brewer]

I've asked this question in the programming section as well. Any help will
be appreciated:

I've seen the posts about using Google Maps and MS Virtual Earth to locate an
address on a map. Does anyone know how I can get the longitude and latitude
coordinats for a group of addresses. I want to store that information in a
table along with the addresses and then export that data to MS Streets and
Trips.

I have to make driving directions for approx. 30 records at a time from a
list containing several hundred names and addresses. It is tedious for me to
throw all the pins on the map, eyeball what seems to be in close proximity,
and then group those into a select group so I can print directions. I figure
with the coordinates, I could query based on that and then parse just that
data out to the mapping program.

Many thanks if someone can help with this....

Dana,

The only place I found to get accurate information was to purchase it. I
saw no way to get it for free without entering one address at a time and
then retyping into a table. I got mine from http://www.zipcodeworld.com/
