You can open only one project at a time.

After opening the project you can geocode using the column mappings and geocoding preferences
that were saved with the project. Or you can you make changes before proceeding with geocoding.

If you are using an old project, you may get an initialization error when you try to run the project in
MapMarker USA 25. This is because your project is pointing to an older Address Dictionary. You can
ignore this error message, and the project will then use the MapMarker USA 25 Address Dictionary.
To eliminate this error message, see the
