Microsoft Map 97
  • Microsoft Map 97 is a tool that allows the user
    to analyze data that have a geographic component.
    Maps allow the user to comprehend the meaning of
    large amounts of data. Trends and relationships
    that may not be apparent in purely numeric data
    can often be seen when the data are placed into a
    map. Microsoft Map 97 is free with Microsoft
    Windows/Microsoft Excel. Help for Microsoft Map
    97 is available in the help areas on your
    computer and on the WWW. Help for the newly
    released (and very powerful) Microsoft MapPoint
    2001 (which is sold as a separate software
    package) is available with the software and on
    the WWW.

Summary Of Microsoft Map 97
  • Microsoft Map 97 is a tool that allows the user
    to analyze data that have a geographic component.
    Microsoft Map 97 has several major limitations,
    though. It does not allow more than 16 different
    colors, although Value Shading maps show
    various shades of a color. It does not have
    separate maps for Asia or for most of Africa.
    When a map is revised it sometimes loses data
    this can be a major problem and is something the
    user needs to check during revisions and when
    copying a map. Microsoft has released Microsoft
    MapPoint 2001, a truly awesome mapping and
    geographic information system (GIS) package, as
    part of their Microsoft Office Suite of
    productivity software. However, where Microsoft
    Map 97 is free with Microsoft Windows/Microsoft
    Excel, Microsoft MapPoint 2001 is sold as a
    separate software package. A free 60-day trial
    version of Microsoft MapPoint 2001 is available
    from Microsoft.
