SYMPTOMS

When you import addresses into one of the programs listed at the beginning of this article, the program may take several minutes to place the addresses on the map, or the program may appear to stop responding (hang).

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if you attempt to import an address list in which one or more of the addresses is not complete.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, make sure that all of the addresses are complete before you import them into the program.

MORE INFORMATION

The programs listed at the beginning of this article are designed to import complete addresses.

When you import addresses into one of these programs,the program requires only the street addresses and the postal codes (ZIP Codes) to find the locations on the map. However, the program must perform many additional calculations if complete addresses are not provided. These additional calculations can slow the response time.
