Hi,

I have a spreadsheet with upwards of 1,000 postcodes that will change (both in volume and postcodes themselves) as items are added or removed.

I'd like to be able to view these as pins in a UK and Ireland map (ideally with different colours for the pins depending on various criteria - for example; priority, company name, job type etc. As the data in the spreadsheet will continually be updated, I'd also like to be able to refresh the map to reflect the changes.

Is this something that is achievable through Excel? I've played with the Bing Add-In but this appears to limit me to a maximum of 100 postcodes.

Thanks

David
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
can't say I have seen a UK postcode map for excel

I have not worked with Power Map, but this may be an area to research as it links directly with Excel and is a Microsoft Product part of the Power Series.

Yes, you can use the 3D map in Excel to do this, works better with lat and long though
