Address search
Use the Quick address search
tool in the toolbar to locate addresses on the map. For example, if you want to view a network located on a specific street, you can go to the location in question by using the quick address search and then locating the address by clicking the Locate
button. Start typing the street/road address in the Quick address search field to have the options listed below the field and then select the one you want. Click Address
to open the form used for editing the address.
Note that the Quick address search
tool does not list addresses that have no location attached. Such addresses can be searched on the actual address form (Address
).
Address search in the database
The Address
tool can be used to search addresses in the database and to locate them on the map. This tool can be used to update address information and add new addresses to the database. When you click the button, the Addressform is displayed. On this form, enter the address you want to find and click Search
to have the program search the database for addresses matching the search criteria.
For example, a search based on a city will return all the addresses in that city as search results. You can use % as a wild card character that replaces a part of a search term. In this case, the search results include all addresses matching the text that precedes the % character. The number of results that meet the search criteria is displayed in the bottom left corner of the form. Use the arrow buttons to browse through the search results 
. You can center the map on the searched address with the Locate
function on the form.
If the Address form has been opened from some other object form using the Address search function, the Update to form
button will be activated on the Addressform. Click the button to update the address selected on the form to the object form. This enables you, for example, to add an address to an error report.
Adding an address to the database
If an address is not yet in the database, and you want to add it there, use the Address
form to create an address. Street and City are mandatory property attributes. When you have saved this information, click Create
, and then click the left mouse button to place the address on the map.
When updating address information, please note that the changes will affect all network objects and events using the same address. Addresses that are used by network objects or events cannot be deleted from the system.
