User Guide

Modify Table Structure dialog

The Modify Table Structure dialog allows you to change the structure of your geocoding table by
adding, removing or changing information about the table’s columns. This is useful for creating
columns “on the fly” when you want MapMarker to return additional data from the Address Dictionary
for which you had not provided a column. This eliminates the time-consuming step of going outside
of MapMarker to make these changes.
