How are you doing your geocoding? Are you trying to store lats and longs?
A key that maps to lats and longs? Are you using a zipcode, or county, or
state value to determine your geocoding?

addresses. We need the lattitude and longitude as the input will be
the address.

will use the MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.3.0 object to make calls to the
Google and Yahoo API used for geocoding. The simple HTTP calls are all
that I need and are simple. I can then get the elements I need out of
the XML returned. I plan to expand this eventually ontok.com and
geocoder.us for commercial type applications and they offer the same
simple HTTP REST interface.
