Multiple Items at One Location

OK, I've installed the trial version to confirm it does what I want. I'm working from a MySql Db and generating queries to produce Excel output. I have Device Model, Serial Number, Location and PostCode. There may be 3 or 4 device types (models) at each location and a small number of one or more e.g. 1 x Model A, 2 x Model B, 1 x Model C etc. and I want to show each on my map.

It looks to me as though I need to generate a list for the number of each model at each location in seperate excel files and then link each file to show more than one machine at the same location using different flags, otherwise all I see are the locations regardless of the number/type of devices at each location. Am I correct or is there another (better!!) way ?

Many thanks

Re: Multiple Items at One Location

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand your question correct, but with some custom programming you can create a different pushpin for each model or so, also if they are exact on same position you can wide them a little from each other for better view.
