Map Program

Anyone know of a program where you can enter numerous addresses and have it map the addresses out for you.

Re: Map Quest allows...

Map Quest allows me to add another address. Also my Garman will map out several addresses and by adding a new destination via the last destination. I have put in several addresses at one time and it took me to each. In order of which one was the closest to the next closest.

Google Maps does this, too...

When you enter one address, enter "Get Directions" -- under that list you can enter "Add a destination" and it will map it out for you. If you don't like the route it chooses, you can drag it around.

Here's a sample route:

Yahoo Maps does a decent job, too.

Guess it's what you get used to. Think I'm on my 3rd (4th?) map program now. Seems like they keep improving them until they gp way over the top...and then some other map is better.

Unless you are looking for something that optimizes a route

If you are looking for a software that will put your locations in geographical order, or round trip, with your office or home as a starting and ending point, I suggest google tsp:

I bought Microsoft Street and Trips 2008 and it was not up to date in my area. I would not recommend it.
