Custom territories and adding new geographical units

Hi All. I am new user of MP Europe from Poland. My question: if I want to create territories in Poland the only geographical units that are available to choose from are province and country/region. And this doesn't satisfy me. Is there a way to create custom territories based on smaller geographical units? Is there a way to access internal MP database and "inform" it of zip codes for instance? Sorry if the problem was already discussed - I couldn't find the answer. Thanks in advance. Mirek

You can only use the territories with the built-in geographies as you have discovered, however you can draw your own custom polygons using the drawing tools.

You cannot access the underlying cartographic database (to add a zip code).
