Hello All,

I'm looking for a solution or a template to plot addresses on an embedded map. Within an excel sheet, I'd have a column with addresses and I'd like to embed a Google/Bing map within the same sheet, that plots the address points. The tools within Excel aren't great for this (Maps, 3D Map). I'm thinking Google Maps is best, however I'm getting lost with the coding and APIs. I've tried to follow a few online examples but the coding/data was old and outdated, and I'm not a pro programmer to be able to self-code and work out the errors. So I'm left to Googling for results : )

I've attached a photo of the concept I'm looking to achieve. I feel like this is a somewhat common template I should be able to find.

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.

The 1st time I used 3d in excel, in worked perfectly, since then it has zero functionality. Like it even returns 'no resolution for this address' and yesterday it was fine with finding them. I'm looking at map visualisations in PBI, seems the internet concurs that it is much more reliable. Good luck.
