Very Successful—The results list displays and, if there is one
excellent match, the map centers on that place. A MapTag displays if
the MapTags check box is selected. The only time a MapTag is not
placed is when you find and then go to a labeled area that has no
single map point associated with it (for example, a large park).
Successful—The results list displays. Scroll or browse through the list
of search results until you find the one you want to locate. To center
an item on the map, double-click it or select it and then click Go To. A
MapTag displays if the MapTags check box is selected.
Tip Single click an item in the results list to highlight it on the map
without adding a MapTag or centering it in the map view. For more
information on viewing results, see Tips on Viewing Search Results.
Not Successful—The Advanced dialog area displays. The program
makes its best guess about the type of search you were trying and
your search word(s) display in the upper-right text box. Click Search
to proceed. For more information, see Performing an Advanced
Search.
Notes
• Use a comma to separate city and state/country (Atlanta, Georgia; Montreal,
Canada), major point of interest and state (Mt Washington, NH), parts of an
address (444 E Pk Drive, Milford, CT or 444 E Pk Dr, 06460), or coordinate
points (N 43.8, W 70.2).
Tip You can find major landmarks or points of interest, such as Yellowstone
National Park and Mount Rushmore, without using the state as part of the
search criteria.

Portland, ME or Congress St & High St, 04101).
• Avoid entering a period in your text.
