Yes, Ken, it works just fine on a NEW entry. I have a very large file with tons of locations already entered with info like Rochester, , VT. When I click on the "Show Geo Location List" icon either on the Individual view or in edit that is where the problem occurs. Instead of Rochester, Windsor, Vermont, USA as the default entry I get "Rochester, Andrew, Missouri, USA"
With me now?

Up until the last release when a Geo Database lookup was done the "best match" was provided. For example Omaha, , NE would come up with Omaha, Douglas, Nebraska, USA. Now the first Omaha found is the default choice and you have to go down the pick list to find the Omaha in Nebraska? I don't see this as an improvement.

Open up a patch file in notepad/excel/whatever (you might have to change ending to .txt first) and then you see how it is written. Important is to find UID that identifies what location to update. Question to Ken: Are you going to expand the patch function with an ADD function so we easily also can add new locations to Geobase ?
