Hi there,

I have found that you need to make sure that there are no spurious values in your lat / long fields in order for the maps to work. Is it the case that if you select a country that you have data for it works but across the whole data set it doesn't? Try ensuring any spurious values are removed or set to null() at load time.

Regards,
Steve

Try to paste the image link in a textbox. On this way you could check if it is your link to maps.google.com or not. Try this only with a few coordinates (tested bij hand directly on maps.google.com) to ensure yourself that your data isn't the problem.

If the problem stands you could post your document here so we can help you further!

Good luck!

H there,

I don't know if it is causing the issues you are seeing, but I would definitely get yourself a GMap key and paste that into your load script. You can sign up for one here:

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html

Google will limit how many requests you can make to the server if you don't have a valid key.

Regarding the spot size you will need to set the Max Bubble Size on the Presentation tab and have a third expression that returns a numeric to give a bubble size.

Good luck!

Steve

Thank you for your response

1. regarding the Bubble Size , "Max Bubble Size" , do you mean this? i change it to 148 and still the same .

2. regarding the GMAP Key , if i am using this for internal use , which URL i need to insert ?

3. regarding the expression , i have 4 expression , longitude ,latitude , SUM(CNT_LOC) and SUM(CNT_LOC)
