MapForums

Afternoon folks!
I'm very much a beginner when it comes to MapPoint as I don't have a need for it on an every day basis.

What I'm looking to do is create a layer on the map that will illustrate the different zones in our small city. Each of these zones is a Neighborhood Association made up of volunteers committed to help make our City a happier, healthier and safer place to live.

An example of the layers I'd be creating in MapPoint can be found here

From this, I'd like to be able to extract a list of addresses or address ranges that I can then load into a SQL database. What I plan to do with it is create an application that will allow a resident to type in their home or business address and return information about their zone and more specifically, their association.

My question is, for one, is what I'm trying to do possible? If not, does anyone have an idea of where I can go to get the information?

Thanks,

Bob

Unfortunately, I cannot help you but I have a question for you. How do you draw the zones - do you use the freeform tool? If so how do you make it so that two neighboring zones share only one line/border?
