I am trying to tidy up the addresses in my database as I want to
standardise them (ie I have some where I have put UK and others
United Kingdrom) but I cannot remember how to do this. I have
checked the help file but am obviously not explaining myself very
well to it.

If someone could point me in the right direction it would be
appreciated.

What I would do is each time across a location with, say, UK that I
wanted to be United Kingdom(*) is use Search and Replace, selecting
Lists - Location for the "Find where".  Then repeat for Lists -
Location Short and Lists - Location Sorted.

(*) Except, of course, that I wouldn't have used UK or United
Kingdom in a location name!  Oh dear, I'm afraid you might have set
Ron off again!!!

It's very, very close, Jenny, but I would like to see an example location first, at this stage I would only add that we do not use GB either, neither being countries!
