Simple way to display data points & assoc information

I am not a programer and am looking for a simple way to professionally display about 500 locations on a US map, each with 2 to 4 pieces of associated data I would also like to display. I have tried Pushpin tool and the balloons are on top of each other. Any ideas?

Re: Simple way to display data points & assoc information

Hi Steve,

There is just too little screen to show everything.

You're going to have to export the map at a lower altitude
so that everything is visible at full map extents. This is the
same in all mapping products (some allow you to zoom in upon
a multi-layered pdf if you have both the need and the money).

Many mapping products now include a print-to-pdf feature
that will capture your data to a wall-size map.
That is what I do uing MapPoint.
