Batch Conversion of postcodes to co-ordinates

Hello all, im fairly new to this forum but have been a avid visiter to www.pocketgpsworld.com for a long time now. Im looking for a product (prepared to pay for it if needed) that will convert a fairly small list (about 900+) list of postcodes into co-ordinates so i can add them as a list of POI's I need to be able to assign a name to each POI so i can recognise it when searching. The purpose is for finding customer addresses. As im sure you all find sometimes a road name is insuffcient.

Is there anything out there or under delvelopment that would do the job?

Any assistance greatly appre Smile

If you are in the UK then why not use CodeSearch available on our TomTom POI Page at http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/tomtompoi.php

Yes, id allready considered that but i cover about 3 -4 areas on there wchich result in massive poi files (maybe slow down TOMTOM. What im trying to do its create my own POI list from a database of postcodes (customer list)

You could use my program CodeSearch that is posted in the PC Downloads area http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=22 You will have to type the Postcodes in and add a description. However, you can create your list in stages by using the Open and Append buttons after Saving the first file.

Currently, the maximum number of entries is 1000.
