I have developed several vba/Excel solutions but I have to admit I'm feeling like the guy with one eye who's king amongst the blind when it comes to get GoogleMap info into Excel. And honestly, I don't understand most of what you're saying above. I downloaded your simple Excel geocode spreadsheet and looked at the macro. Where the hell is the section that copies the Lat/Lon into B8/B9? How are these cells updated? I honestly don't have a clue. But that's just a minor thing. I really do not know how you are doing it or what I see when I look up the website with the map. I got my Google API key and I believe I need to replace 'yourkeyhere' in the html page googlemap.txt with this key. What else do I need to do? Probably replace 'http://www.automateexcel.com/media/XXcomputer.gif\' and '<a href="http://www.automateexcel.com" rel="nofollow">AutomateExcel.com</a>' with something, but what? Then I can see '//map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-84.457741, 37.975192), 4);' ..... Will this info be updated by the Excel VBA call 'ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps("RDF_Map").Import URL:="http://geocoder.us/service/rest/geocode?address=" & sendstring' ?? If I had a website called 'www.stupidme.com', would I need to replace 'automateexcel' with 'stupidme'? Would I need to create a sub folder '/media'? what does the 'XXcomputer.gif' look like and what is it for? Finally, how do I get the map to my Excel spreadsheet? Man and I thought I know a bit about Excel..... cheers FRANZ I consider myself a pretty advanced Excel user.

But that’s just a minor thing. I really do not know how you are doing it or what I see when I look up the website with the map. I got my Google API key and I believe I need to replace ‘yourkeyhere’ in the html page googlemap.txt with this key.

What else do I need to do? Probably replace ‘http://www.automateexcel.com/media/XXcomputer.gif\’ and ‘AutomateExcel.com‘ with something, but what? Then I can see ‘//map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-84.457741, 37.975192), 4);’ ….. Will this info be updated by the Excel VBA call ‘ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps(“RDF_Map”).Import URL:=”http://geocoder.us/service/rest/geocode?address=” & sendstring’ ??

If I had a website called ‘www.stupidme.com’, would I need to replace ‘automateexcel’ with ‘stupidme’? Would I need to create a sub folder ‘/media’? what does the ‘XXcomputer.gif’ look like and what is it for?

Finally, how do I get the map to my Excel spreadsheet?

Man and I thought I know a bit about Excel…..

I'm sure many more people have looked for this kind of API than what have commented - I have a question buddy.... I can't find a "geocoder" alternative for Australia - how can we get this to work? We have a list of clients in Excel with an address - and I want to make a macro that pulls the address, gets the image from google maps, and brings it back into excel on a new sheet (Then prints). most of this is easy, and adapting your work shouldn't be too difficult if i can only find a geocoder for Australia... any ideas? Suggestions? Excellent! I’m sure many more people have looked for this kind of API than what have commented – I have a question buddy….

Here's a question though. What if I wanted say 5 or 10 dots on my map. Could I refresh the map and it shows multiple dots? Also, lets say I have a list of 10 addresses in excel and all these are plotted on the map. Now lets say I filter those 10 addresses. Could the map (once refreshed)change with my newly revised address list? Thanks This is exactly what I’m looking for. Here’s a question though. What if I wanted say 5 or 10 dots on my map.
