MapForums

I work in the health care industry, and I am using MapPoint to illustrate patient/facility data in a US region. I typically select the text size as smallest and use the data map feature to display the data as pushpins.

I have noticed that when I import the data into MapPoint, the county lines displayed in each state make my data/pushpins appear confusing and busy. Is it possible to customize the view so that these county boundary lines or other marks can be removed? I am just looking to have a clear state with nearly no writing inside the state, so that the data itself is crystal clear. Is this possible?

When I change the map view to "Data Map" by clicking "View | Map style | Data Map" I see no county lines?

I am not sure if there is a way to attach a file to this forum, I could then show the appearance of my map. Once data is imported into the map, the little lines show up everywhere--I believe they outline the counties. I haven't been able to customize the view at all to eliminate things such as lines within each state. Any ideas?

Not promising anything but if you want to send me the map
